A: Thank you for your question. Our product can be used to root cuttings from hydrangeas.
A: If I were you I would buy mushroom compost to use when planting the trees. Then year after year I would hammer in a miracle grow fertilizer stick. The root hormone, in my opinion, is really good when the soil is weak.
A: Thank you for your question. Our product has only been tested on plants and flowers so we cannot guarantee the results.
A: It doesn’t work for me. I tried on persimmon and other trees, not successful.
A: I have used this on woody shrub stems with success so I assume it would also work on fruit tree cuttings. Be sure to not use too large of a cutting; cut one side at a sharp angle for at least an inch. Coat the entire bottom up past the one inch cut with the rooting powder and put in a pre-made hole in the rooting medium so you don't rub the powder off. Maintain moisture in the rooting medium and enclose in a plastic bag to maintain high humidity. I usually keep out of direct sunlight and check in a few weeks for root formation. Ideally you should take cuttings during moon signs of Cancer, Libra, and Scorpio during light of the moon phases.
A: Hi there BrownThumb. Thank you for your question. If you Papaya has stopped fruiting, what has changed? Water? Fertilizer? Sunlight? Is this plant in the ground or is it in a pot? These can all issues that can cause your plant to stop fruiting. To do this type of pruning, the Spring is the right time to do it. To revitalize your non-producing papaya, or one that has gotten too tall, cut the stem about 3 feet from the ground and cover the remaining stem with garbage bag to protect it from water and rain. Several shoots should sprout from the bottom. No root tone need be added to the remaining stem. Let the shoots grow till they are about 1 foot tall. Choose the strongest of these new shoots and cut the remaining ones from the main stem. You can try to get the cutting to grow roots by using the root tone. The trick will be to keep the humidity high and the temperature between about 77 F and no higher than 95 F. Cuttings may or may not root.

A: "Carnations are propagated from softwood cuttings taken from the new growth at the tips of the healthy, mature plants. ... The raw ends of the cuttings are dipped in plant rooting hormone, potted up and kept moist and warm until they root -- in two to four weeks." homeguides.sfgate.com/can-carnation-cuttings-grow-roots-59381.html
A: Not sure. But worth a try. I'm guessing it may.
A: Thank you for your question. Yes, it can be used on your carnation.
A: Sure you can do it with confidence, I have been using it, on my newly planted sprouts and so far so good.
A: I’m not sure if carnations root from stems.
A: Honestly I don’t know if it would work for orchard or not. Orchard lives on just air and water, the plants I used hormone on need soil and water. I bought it last year for Jasmine flower plants and rare rose flower plants. It seems to work for both. But this year, I tried without this hormone on same Jasmine and rose flower plants, guess what? They work too.
A: Thank you for your question. Our product hasn't been tested on orchids so we cannot guarantee the results.
A: No...I have had zero luck with orchids
A: I didn't use it for that but regular plants, roses, hibiscus, lemons, and limes; but I think it will works since it promotes the rooting, it doesn't matter the diameter of the branch, just put enough to cover it.
A: I have used it for rose branches and most of them grew. Would recommend cutting the branch bottom diagonally, dip it in the substances and plant.
A: Yes, our product is safe for vegetables.
A: I imagine so, it is just a rooting powder, not a fertilizer, Youtube has videos of veg growers using root growth hormone. But it never worked for my rose stems anyway, i used the honey/cinnamon method more successfully.
A: This product works great to start plants from cuttings as long as the plant has the rooting characteristic.
A: This specific product, which has the lowest concentration (0.1%) you'll find in any commercial rooting powder of just one rooting hormone (indole-3-butyric acid) is unlikely to be very effective on any pine species (or most evergreens) which are typically "difficult to root". I'd strongly recommend doing some specific Web research on propagating that particular pine species to see what strength and composition is recommended by experts (like professional nursery growers, or state university agricultural extension offices), but I'd be very surprised if a weak, "general purpose" rooting product is effective in this case. Fwiw, Hormex makes stronger products that are relatively accessible to average consumers (like their No. 5 or No. 8 powders, which have five and eight times the amount of IBA this one has, respectively) but since the stronger products are expensive and since it takes a long time for any evergreen to root in the best of circumstances, I'd definitely do some research before spending a lot of time and money on the trial-and-error approach.
A: Yes, this will work with a loblolly pine tree cutting.
A: Can be used on all roots.
A: Sure, you can use TakeRoot on your arborvitae cuttings.
A: Hi Willetta. To apply Garden Safe Brand TakeRoot Rooting Hormone, moisten the cut ends of the cuttings before treatment. Stir the cut ends in Garden Safe Brand TakeRoot Rooting Hormone powder. Remove excess powder by tapping on the rim of the container. Plant treated cuttings in a rooting medium such as potting soil. Mist regularly.
A: You don't dissolve this in water at all. You dip the stems of the cuttings in water, shake or tap off the excess, then dip them in the rooting powder (pour a small amount into a small container or dish, don't just stick them in the bottle), and then insert them into holes you've made in your potting medium with a thin stick or similar implement (don't just poke them into the medium, to avoid scraping off most of the powder.) There should be basic instructions on the package, and you'll find a *lot* of information rooting all sorts of different plants on the Web.
