Description

Hydro Root™ combines a plant rooting hormone (IBA) with our specialty formulation to aid root initiation and root growth in plant cuttings. A thick gel, Hydro Root™ seals and protects the cutting while giving excellent coverage. Use to initiate and promote root growth in horticulture crops, leaf, softwood and semi-hardwood cuttings, cannabis, vegetables, fruit trees, and small fruits.
