Giving fruits medication to ripen them before their time

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: Is it permissible to give grapes or other crops and fruits some medication so that they ripen before their time in order to obtain a high price?

Answer:
No, it is not permissible to give them medication that makes them grow larger, nor is it permissible to give them medication that colors them. This is not permissible; it is deception. Yes.
