Creating new plants through asexual propagation, or "cloning", is a successful and widely used horticultural technique that allows plant growers and gardeners to reproduce faithful copies of a source plant, otherwise known as a "mother plant". In this process, stem or leaf cuttings are taken from the mother plant, the cut being treated with Clonex®Rooting Compound, then stuck into a rooting medium. In a short time, new roots develop from the Clonex® treated cut area, and a new plant bearing the identical genetic characteristics of the mother plant, is born. Cloning plants is extremely useful in the mass production of seedlings for transplanting, and for the faithful reproduction of plants that don't reproduce true from seed.
Clonex® is a high performance, water-based, rooting compound developed by Growth Technology™ Ltd. It is a tenacious gel which will remain in contact around the stem, sealing the cut tissue and supplying the hormones needed to promote root cell development and vitamins to protect the delicate new root tissue.
Clonex® has a full spectrum of mineral nutrients and trace elements to nourish the young roots during their important formative stages. Our scientific breakthrough puts Clonex® Rooting Compound years ahead of manufacturers of old fashioned hormones and powders.
Clonex® Rooting Compound Gel is and has been the foremost product in its field since its launch in 1989. It is known and respected the world over and has been used to produce at least 1,000,000,000 individual plant clones during that period of time, successfully cloning virtually every species of plant known to man.
Clonex® Rooting Compound Gel has succeeded because the formulation has been fine-tuned over hundreds of experiments to give the explosive root development that serious growers and plant nurseries now depend upon for successful and profitable plant propagation. Clonex® Rooting Compound Gel is completely alcohol-free.
For promoting root growth in softwood and semi-hardwood cuttings. Dip cutting in Clonex® Rooting Compound to desired depth. Insert into rooting medium so that cut area is completely submerged. Mist cuttings and place in propagator.
