For good rooting, special means are used - growth stimulants. They accelerate root formation in plants and improve survival rate during transplantation. There are natural and synthesized. The stimulants contain a plant hormone - auxin, which stimulates the formation of roots.
Homemade root stimulants
Many summer residents choose natural remedies, using products that are in every home: potatoes, yeast, honey.
Potato
When propagating plants from cuttings, gardeners are faced with problems of drying or rotting of the material, diseases and insect attacks.
One of the effective solutions is the use of potatoes. It contains proteins, starch, mineral salts and other nutrients that the plant needs for full growth and root development.
Yeast
Experienced summer residents know that by using a yeast solution, you can not only speed up and increase the immunity of seedlings, rejuvenate old plants, but also get a powerful root system.
Yeast contains B vitamins and a large complex of organic substances necessary for full growth.
Honey
Ordinary honey is a good stimulant. The composition includes a large number of minerals, enzymes and amino acids.
The solution is quickly absorbed by the plant, which results in rapid growth of roots, strength and endurance of the crop, and subsequently rapid flowering and high yield.
Synthesized root formation stimulants
Modern manufacturers offer a large selection of growth stimulants. With a constantly changing climate and poor ecology, it is difficult to do without the help of chemicals. Their compositions include complexes of vitamins and minerals necessary for plants.
Popular means designed to accelerate root formation include the following stimulants.
Heteroauxin
Considered a powerful plant stimulant.
It showed itself well in cuttings, rapid restoration of damaged seedlings and good adaptation of planting material when transplanted into the ground.
Crops treated with the product have strong roots, which is necessary for full growth, abundant flowering and high yield.
succinic acid
Succinic acid is a necessary component for restoring soil microflora.
It accelerates survival rate, increases stress resistance, helps rapid root regrowth and restores weak plants during the growing season.
This product is non-toxic and can be used on different types of plants.
Krezacin
The growth stimulator "Krezacin" is used to strengthen plants.
The product protects seedlings during temperature changes and lack of light, and helps seedlings quickly take root.
It can be combined with means for killing insects and pathogens - it enhances their effect.
Gardeners - both amateurs and professionals - have proven the positive effect of using root formers. Correct and timely application in agricultural technology helps to grow strong seedlings and obtain a bountiful harvest.
