Stable to heat, light and water

Application

Absorbed by leaves, stem, cotyledon and germinated seeds. It promotes cell division, differentiation and development; induces budding of callus, and controls apical dominance; breaks dormancy of lateral buds and promotes germination; delays ageing process and maintains chlorophyll in excised leaves; regulates the transport of nutrients; promotes fruit formation, etc. the bioavailability of KT-30 is 10-100 times of that of 6BA.

Uses

Increase the size of kiwifruit, table grapes and peaches;

Promote fruit set in melons, pumpkins and cucumbers;

Promote branching in apples

Increase yield in potatoes, rice and wheat.
