Do you have a link I could look at to see where you got your info? A quick look on google shows that at lower doses it can be used as a growth "regulator". Slows down growth so much that you can reduce mowing. I didn't spot anything saying that it could be used to stimulate growth. From what I can see on a quick search, it works by preventing plants from producing some proteins needed for growth.
