NOTES 'AI' is the Active Ingredient specified as 'ppm AI '= parts per million AI = milligrams (mg) AI per liter (L). 1 Liter (L)= 1000 milliliter (ml)= 33.8 fluid ounces. For additional information on how to use 'Active Ingredient' see ‘To Make a Solution of Any Working Volume’. PROMOTE ROOTING OF PLANT CUTTINGS Use to propagate new plants from cutting- from those easy to root to the most difficult to root.
Apply to plant cuttings by convenient methods:
Total Immerse Completely immerse several cuttings at a time for a few seconds then plant. Quick Dip Immerse basal end of cuttings for a few seconds then plant. Spray Drip Down TM Plant many cuttings in trays then spray cuttings until drips down. Immersion Method Immerse basal end of cuttings for a few hours then plant.
1. Take plant cuttings, usually stem cuttings. For woody cuttings usually wound by making a 3/4" notch at basal end. 2. For Quick Dip and Immerse treat basal end of plant cuttings with solution then plant. For Total Immerse dip whole cuttings in solution then plant. For spray Drip Down plant cuttings then treat by spraying leaves and stems until drip down. 3. Take care of cuttings as appropriate for the plant variety. Control watering, temperature, humidity, light and other environmental factors. Observe and control external factors such as insects and fungus. Mix a portion of the solution for the same day use. Dispose of un-used portion as described in the ‘storage and disposal’ statements on this label. IMMERSION METHOD Immerse Basal End Then Plant Immerse basal end of cuttings approximately 1" in solution for 4 to12 hours. Plant immediately. Herbaceous and Woody Cuttings, including hard to root cuttings and rootstocks: 1-3 Tablets/liter water (50-150 ppm AI) QUICK DIP METHOD Immerse Basal End Then Plant Immerse basal end of cuttings approximately 1" in solution a few seconds. Plant immediately. To mix more than 10 Tablets/liter see ‘To Make a Solution’. Herbaceous Cuttings, Tropical Plants, House Plants, Roses, etc.: 3-10 Tablets/liter water (150-500 ppm AI) Chrysanthemum: 4-10 Tablets/liter water (200-500 ppm AI) Softwood Cuttings: 20 Tablets/liter (1000 ppm AI) Hardwood Cuttings: 40 Tablets/liter (2000 ppm AI) Difficult to Root Cuttings: 100-400 Tablets/liter (5000-20000 ppm AI) TOTAL IMMERSE METHOD Total Immerse Cuttings Then Plant Immerse whole cuttings in solution a few seconds. A basket is useful. Plant immediately. Herbaceous Cuttings, Chrysanthemum, Plumbago, Ivy, Clematis, Delphinium, Lavender, Ficus, Potted Rose Bushes, etc.:1-5 Tablets/liter water (50-250 ppm AI) Softwood Cuttings, Buddleia (Butterfly Bush), Hydrangea, Pieris, Hedera (Ivy), etc.: 1-6 Tablets/liter water (50-300 ppm AI) Hardwood Cuttings, Conifers,etc.: 4-10 Tablets/liter water (200-500 ppm AI) SPRAY DRIP DOWN METHOD TM Plant Cuttings Then Spray Plant cuttings. Spray solution on leaves and stems until drip down into media. Herbaceous Cuttings, Chrysanthemum, Begonia, Dieffenbachia, Heath, Hibiscus, etc.: 1-5 Tablets/liter water (50-250 ppm AI)
For Cuttings Which Take a Long Time to Root, or When Roots of Cuttings are Killed by Root Fungus. Periodically spray solution on leaves and stems until drip down into media: 1-5 Tablets/liter water (50-250 ppm AI) Use solutions to promote root regeneration when transplanting. Immersion- Absorption Method (treat bare root plants). Soil Drench Method (treat plants in plug or ball). Soil Drench Method (treat transplants already planted). IMMERSION-ABSORPTION METHOD TM (Bare Root Plants) Dissolve Tablets in water only. Immerse bare roots in solution. Plant immediately or use before storage. Immerse roots in solution at 2-3 Tablets/liter water for 10 minutes, or 3-5 Tablets/liter water for 5 minutes. After treating roots optionally spray the leaves lightly using ½ to 1 Tablet/liter water.
SPRAY OR DIP METHODS (Plants in Plug or Ball) Spray plug, ball or bare roots after taking the plants out of propagation tray, or dip whole plug or ball in solution until fully saturated. Herbaceous Plants, House and Foliage Plants: 1-3 Tablets/ liter water. Woody, Ornamental and Forestry Plants: 3-5 Tablets/liter water. After treating roots optionally spray the leaves lightly using ½ to 1 Tablet/liter water. SOIL DRENCH METHOD (After Planting) After planting drench the soil. House and Foliage Plants: 1-2 Tablets/liter water. Herbaceous Plants: 2-4 Tablets/liter water. Woody, Ornamental and Forestry Plants: 4-8 Tablets/liter water. Use higher rate when soil composition draws water away from the roots. After treating roots optionally spray the leaves lightly using ½ to 1 Tablet/liter water. Use on house, tropical, herbaceous, bedding, flowering plants. Improve growth and flowering by increasing root mass. Apply at 3-5 week intervals during the active growing season or whenever fertilizing. Apply after harvesting to improve flower regeneration. Drench the soil and or spray foliage. Use 1/10 to 1 Tablet/liter water. Hardy Ornamental Plants, Deciduous and Evergreen Shrubs and Trees. Apply at 4-6 week intervals early in the active growing season or whenever fertilizing. Apply 1 or 2 times late in the growing season to reduce winter kill and improve following year growth. Drench the soil and or spray foliage. Use 1/4 to 2 Tablets/liter water. TO MAKE A SOLUTION OF ANY VOLUME For many applications dissolve tablets using water only. Mix a portion of the solution for the same day use. Dispose of un-used portion as described in the ‘storage and disposal’ statements on this label. Active Ingredients entirely dissolve, in water up to 10 Tablets/liter (500 ppm AI), in water and alcohol to 400 Tablets/liter (20000 ppm AI). A small amount of visible inert ingredients do not affect results. Container: Use plastic not metal. Water: Use clean water preferably distilled or deionized. Alcohol: Use methyl or isopropyl or ethyl. Temperature: Dissolve Tablets at 68F-85F. 'Blender' is an electric hand blender (liquefier). Stir at least 1 minute or until dissolved. When using a blender mix an adequate amount of liquid to assure adequate blender action. THREE EASY STEPS (1) Decide the concentration in Tablets/liter or ppm AI. (2) Decide the Working Volume V. (3) Measure and mix. 0-5 Tablets/liter (0-250 ppm AI): -Dissolve in water. Mix manually or use blender. 5-10 Tablets/liter (250-500 ppm AI): -Dissolve in water. Mix using blender 11-200 Tablets/liter (550-10000 ppm AI): -Make an initial 10000 ppm AI concentration using 50% water+50% alcohol. Dilute with water to make working concentration. Mix using blender. See STEPS TO CALCULATE below. 201-400 Tablets/liter (10050-20000 ppm AI): -Use 25% water+75% alcohol. Mix using blender. EXAMPLES TO MAKE 1 LITER (1000 ml) SOLUTION For the following mix manually or use an electric hand blender: 250 ppm AI: mix 5 Tablets in 1000 ml water. For the following mix using an electric hand blender: 500 ppm AI: mix 10 Tablets in 1000 ml water. 1000 ppm AI: mix 20 Tablets in 50ml water + 50ml alcohol, add water to 1000 ml. 2000 ppm AI: mix 40 Tablets in 100ml water+ 100ml alcohol, add water to 1000 ml. 5000 ppm AI: mix 100 Tab. in 250ml water+ 250ml alcohol, add water to 1000 ml. 8000 ppm AI: mix 160 Tab. in 400ml water+ 400ml alcohol, add water to 1000 ml. 10000 ppm AI: mix 200 Tablets in 500 ml water + 500 ml alcohol. 20000 ppm AI: mix 400 Tablets in 250 ml water + 750 ml alcohol. TO CALCULATE THE NUMBER OF TABLETS T REQUIRED FOR A GIVEN VOLUME V Given Working Volume V and ppm AI: V (Liters)=ml./1000 P=ppm AI /50 The Number of Tablets T= V (Liters) x P Given Working Volume V and Tablets/liter: V (Liters) =ml./1000 N = Tablets/liter The Number of Tablets T =V (Liters) x N Up to 5 Tablets/liter Water (0-250 ppm AI) (1) Calculate the Number of Tablets T. (2) Measure the Working Volume V using water only. (3) Dissolve Tablets in water; mix manually or using hand blender. 6-10 Tablets/liter Water (300-500 ppm AI) (1) Calculate the Number of Tablets T. (2) Measure the Working Volume V using water only. (3) Dissolve Tablets in water; mix using hand blender. 11-200 Tablets/liter Solution (550-10000 ppm AI) (1) Calculate the Number of Tablets T. (2) Calculate the initial mixing volume of water and alcohol (1:1) to dissolve Tablets. Water (ml.) = Number of Tablets T x 2.5 Alcohol (ml.) = Number of Tablets T x 2.5 (3) Measure water and alcohol. Dissolve Tablets in water and alcohol; mix using hand blender. (4) Dilute with water to the Working Volume V (Liters). 200-400 Tablets/liter Solution (10000-20000 ppm AI) (1) Calculate the Number of Tablets T. (2) Measure Working Volume V using 25% water and 75% alcohol. (3) Dissolve Tablets in water and alcohol; mix using hand blender.
