Is it True?

[gunrunner]

Do companies that raise plants for sale to the public really put growth inhibitor on them?
This year I grew Betterboy from seed and also bought some from a local garden house.
The ones I grew I planted in 5 gal buckets and they were a good 2 feet taller than the ones I purchased. Both seems to produce about the same amount of fruit, but theres a big difference in total height.

Thanks
