CANNA RHIZOTONIC

Description

CANNA Rhizotonic is a powerful, algae-based root stimulator that accelerates root development in seedlings, cuttings, and established plants during periods of transplanting, stress recovery, or any situation where enhanced root activity is required. Rhizotonic contains a complex blend of vitamins, amino acids, and natural hormones derived from marine algae that directly stimulate root cell division, lateral root development, and the production of root hairs — creating a more extensive, more efficient root system that supports faster vegetative development and stronger flowering performance.

The Science Behind CANNA Rhizotonic

Plant root development is governed by a complex interaction of hormones, nutrients, and environmental signals. The auxin hormones — indole-acetic acid and related compounds — are the primary drivers of root initiation and elongation. Cytokinins regulate the balance between root and shoot development, stimulating lateral root branching. Vitamins B1 and B2 are essential cofactors in the enzyme systems that drive root cell metabolism. Rhizotonic contains all of these compounds derived from natural sources, providing a comprehensive root-stimulating profile that targets multiple aspects of root development simultaneously. This multi-mechanism approach produces more vigorous and uniform root development than single-compound rooting hormones can achieve. The algae-derived base of Rhizotonic also provides a range of trace minerals and organic compounds that support the microbial populations around the root zone — organisms that produce additional growth-promoting compounds and protect against root pathogens. At The Horticulture Company we have been recommending CANNA Rhizotonic since we opened in 2017. It is one of the most consistently effective root development products in the market and a standard recommendation for any grower working with cuttings or transplanting established plants.

How and When to Use CANNA Rhizotonic

Use Rhizotonic from the propagation stage through to the early vegetative phase. Apply as a root drench at 4ml per litre with each irrigation, or use as a cutting soak by immersing the base of fresh cuttings in a 4ml/L solution for several hours before potting. Can also be applied as a foliar spray during stress recovery. Compatible with all CANNA products and all growing media.
