Root Stimulator- Plant Prod Stim Root #2 Semi-Hardwood Powder, 500g Medium Strength Rooting Hormone for Shrubs

Forcing semi-woody stems to abandon their rigid structure and push out fresh new roots requires a significantly stronger biological catalyst. This Plant Prod Stim Root #2 acts as a powerful plant food specifically formulated for propagation, delivering a medium-strength hormonal push to your stubborn cuttings. You can confidently clone your favorite outdoor shrubs, rigid vines, and woody houseplants with this highly effective rooting powder.

Expertly blended with a robust 0.4% concentration of Indole-3-butyric acid (IBA), this fine propagation dust is perfectly calibrated to penetrate the thicker outer bark of semi-hardwood species. When you introduce this concentrated indoor plant food to a freshly scraped stem, the active hormone powerfully overrides the plant's natural dormancy, forcing intense cellular division at the wound site. The sterile talc carrier powder actively absorbs excess weeping moisture from the fresh cut, significantly reducing the dangerous risk of damp-off disease in humid greenhouse domes. Because it is substantially stronger than a mild softwood mix, it acts as a reliable biological trigger for plants that typically resist rooting in standard potting soil.

Carefully scrape the bottom half-inch of bark off your semi-hardwood cuttings, moisten the exposed cambium layer, and roll it thoroughly in this specialized rooting powder before planting. It performs exceptionally well for challenging species like stiff-stemmed geraniums, established lavender, thick ivy vines, and outdoor evergreen shrubs taken in the late summer. You can directly place the dusted stems into a highly aerated, well draining potting soil or sterile coconut coir blend. This 500g commercial-sized tub from Plant Prod ensures highly consistent, rapid rooting success for your more demanding, woody garden projects.

Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture. Reseal packaging tightly after use to maintain product quality and effectiveness.
