How It Works
Triacontanol is used as a plant growth regulator. HPM describes root development and nutrient utilisation as the purpose of Hitculan Plus.
- Place in soil: Use the labelled granular application route.
- Support development: Triacontanol influences plant growth processes; the response depends on the crop and conditions.
- Maintain crop care: Continue appropriate nutrition, irrigation and crop protection. This is not a replacement for those practices.
A growth regulator is not an insecticide or fungicide. Do not use it to treat an unidentified pest or disease, and do not assume a guaranteed yield response.
