Product Details
Alar is a systemic plant growth regulator approved in the United States for use on ornamental plants such as chrysanthemums, poinsettias, and bedding plants, specifically in controlled environments like greenhouses. It functions to restrict internode elongation, enhance resistance to heat, drought, and frost, and foster darker foliage and stronger stems. Furthermore, it stimulates earlier blooming and higher production of flowers and fruits. Generally, it is applied as a spray with concentrations ranging from 1500 to 10,000 ppm.
Daminozide (CAS No. 1596-84-5), also known as butyryl hydrazine, is a plant growth regulator mainly used in agriculture and horticulture. It is applied to various crops, including fruit trees, potatoes, sweet potatoes, tomatoes, and strawberries. Daminozide helps reduce plant growth, resulting in a more compact plant form. It also improves crops’ resistance to cold and drought, prevents flower and fruit abscission, and assists in fruit setting, ultimately leading to higher yields.
