CLONEX Rooting Gel 50 ml - gel for cuttings

CLONEX Rooting Gel 50ml. is a rooting gel used by everyone from amateur to professional gardeners around the world for the most successful rooting. 

• Easy to use.
• Immediately adheres to the cut tissue, sealing it and staying on the cut.
• Contains rooting hormone at 3,000 parts per million, the full strength needed for explosive root development.
• Gel - far safer than liquids or powders, because it cannot spill or blow away. Unlike liquids and powders, Clonexrooting gel remains in full contact with the stem throughout the rooting period.
• It does not wash off when you water your plants.
• Works with its companion products Root Riot and Clonex Mist to give young plants the healthiest, strongest start in their development.

Instructions for use:

• Choose young branches/shoots from the healthiest plants. If possible, the plant tips can be sprayed withClonex Mistonce or twice a week before taking cuttings. Cut the shoot tips, each with four or five pairs of leaves, and remove the bottom two pairs of leaves.
• Always use a clean, sharp knife or blade. Make a clean diagonal cut at the base of the shoot, just below the lowest leaf node.
• Pour a small amount of ClonexRooting Gel into a separate container for immediate use. Do not dip the cut tissue into the original container or return unused Clonex Rooting Gel, as this could contaminate the remaining gel.
• Immediately dip the shoot about 15 mm into Clonex Rooting Gel, then place it in the rooting medium (rockwool, Jiffy, etc.) deep enough to be held securely.
• Spray the new cuttings with Clonex Mist and place them in a propagator. The lid and vents should be closed.
• After 2-3 days, spray the shoots again with Clonex Mist and slightly open the vents on the propagator.

Check the new roots after a few days - continue spraying with Clonex Mist until the plant is ready for transplanting. If planting in soil, carefully place the soil around the roots to avoid damaging them.

TIP: New cuttings should be kept in a closed propagator, as most plant species thrive at temperatures between 21-24°C and a relative humidity of around 90%. After new roots appear, your plant will need to be hardened off. Open the propagator slightly to let a small amount of air in. Open it a little more each day, until you eventually remove the lid completely. When the young plants are well developed, they can be placed in larger rockwool cubes or transplanted into soil or coco. Carefully place the soil around the new roots to avoid damaging them.
