ADAMA Adaphon Ethephon 39% SL Plant Growth Regulator
Adaphon is listed and pictured as an Ethephon 39% SL plant growth regulator. It is not a Profenofos insecticide. The earlier insecticide description and unsupported pest-control claims have been removed from this page.
Ethephon is an ethylene-releasing plant growth regulator. Its correct use is highly dependent on the crop, growth stage, intended physiological response, concentration and timing. For that reason, this page does not publish crop-specific directions until the current Indian label for this exact pack has been independently verified.
