Product Details

Product Description :

Paclobutrazol is a synthetic fungicide. While it can be applied to kill fungi, it is much more commonly used as a plant growth regulator. Plant growth regulators are used to slow down the top growth of plants, encouraging root growth and thicker, stouter existent growth.

When paclobutrazol is applied to the soil, it moves up through the roots into the shoots and, due to its anti-gibberellin properties, blocks the synthesis of flowering inhibitors, thereby allowing the flower-promoting factor(s) to work.

Paclobutrazol has been applied commercially with success, care being taken not to delay harvest from treated trees. It is applied to the soil in the spring, immediately retarding vegetative growth and the effect can last for 2–3 years.
