This professional-grade, finely milled powder is the industry standard for propagating cuttings, ensuring a reliable and rapid root strike across a wide range of plant species. Formulated with the active growth regulator Indolylbutyric acid (IBA), this powerful root stimulator provides the consistent hormonal support necessary to encourage uniform, circumferential root development around the base of your cuttings. Give your new plants the foundational strength they need to thrive in any hydroponic system or traditional grow medium.
Key Benefits of Using Rhizopon Chryzotop Green 0.25%
- Reliable Rooting: Contains 0.25% IBA to reliably stimulate and accelerate root formation, drastically increasing your propagation success rate.
- Uniform Root System: Encourages roots to form evenly around the entire base of the cutting, leading to stronger plant anchoring and balanced nutrient uptake.
- Enhanced Plant Health: Cuttings with well-developed, high-quality root systems are more efficient at absorbing water and nutrients, resulting in greater resilience against pests and diseases.
- Convenient Powder Form: Easy to use, ready-to-apply powder that is highly stable and will not degrade or deteriorate over time, ensuring consistent results batch after batch.
- Professional Standard: The preferred choice of professional commercial growers and hobbyists seeking maximum efficiency and predictability in their cloning operations.
How to Use Rhizopon Chryzotop Green 0.25%
- Prepare the Cutting: Take a fresh, healthy cutting using a sterile blade or sharp scissors. Moisten only the base of the cutting (1–2 cm) with clean water and shake off any excess moisture.
- Apply the Hormone: Dip the moistened base of the cutting approximately 1–2 cm deep into the Rhizopon Chryzotop Green 0.25% powder.
- Remove Excess: Gently tap or shake the cutting to remove any superfluous powder. Applying too much can potentially damage the stem.
Crucial Tip: Pour a small amount of powder into a separate clean container for dipping. Never dip cuttings directly into the original container, and do not return used powder to the original tub, as this prevents contamination. - Plant the Cutting: Using a pencil or dibber, create a pre-made hole in your chosen rooting medium, such as Rockwool Cubes or a Root Riot tray.
- Secure and Water: Place the cutting into the hole, ensuring the hormone remains intact. Gently firm the medium around the stem and water lightly if necessary. Maintain high humidity in a Propagator with a Heat Mat for optimal results.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the active ingredient in Rhizopon Chryzotop Green 0.25%?
The active ingredient is Indolylbutyric acid (IBA), a powerful synthetic auxin and naturally occurring plant growth hormone that specifically stimulates root cell division and formation in plant cuttings.How deep should I dip my cuttings into the powder?
You should only dip the cutting base 1–2 cm (approximately half an inch to an inch) into the powder. Dipping too deep is unnecessary and can potentially cause stem damage.Can I use this rooting powder for cuttings propagating in water?
No, rooting powders like Rhizopon are designed to be used with solid grow media (like rockwool, coco, or soil). Water will simply wash the hormone off, making it ineffective. For water-based propagation, a Cloning Gel or mist is usually recommended.Why is using the correct concentration important for rooting?
Using the correct concentration (like this 0.25% formula) is crucial. While too little may be ineffective, using an excessive dosage of IBA can actually prevent rooting or cause chemical burn, diverting the plant's energy and possibly dehydrating the cutting.SKU: 1704Free delivery on orders over £60*
