Canna Rhizotonic is an algae-based, natural root stimulator rich in vitamins, trace elements and bioactive compounds. It supports faster root formation, stronger root systems and healthier plant growth across all substrates, soil, coco, hydroponic or soilless.
Use it when planting seeds or cuttings, repotting, or whenever plants need a growth boost: Rhizotonic helps seedlings establish, speeds up rooting of cuttings and helps stressed or re-potted plants recover quickly.
Key Features & Benefits
- Stimulates rapid root growth: Encourages new root development, resulting in a more extensive and efficient root system, ideal for cuttings, seedlings and transplants.
- Improves nutrient & water uptake: A healthy root system absorbs water and nutrients more efficiently, supporting stronger overall plant growth and vigour.
- Aids plant recovery & stress resilience: Helps plants recover more quickly from transplant shock, re-potting, environmental stress or root damage, a good all-round “insurance” additive.
- Enhances germination and early growth: When used as seed soak or early watering feed, Rhizotonic can speed up germination and support strong early root formation.
- Compatible with all growing media and systems: Works with soil, coco, hydroponics, rockwool or other substrates, flexible enough for most growing setups.
- Can be used as foliar spray or root drench: Offers flexibility, feed through your water, or spray onto leaves to help stress-prone or young plants.
- Improves overall plant health & yield potential: A strong root foundation supports healthier growth, better nutrient uptake, improved resistance to stress, which can translate into higher yields and better quality.
How to Use
- Shake well before use.
- Standard dosage: Mix 4 ml per litre of water (~40 ml per 10 L).
- Application: Use as a root drench (water-feed) or as a foliar spray. For cuttings or seedlings, spray 1–6 times daily until roots establish.
- When to apply: At sowing or transplant, after repotting, during early vegetative growth or when recovering from stress or shock.
- For seed germination: Dilute 40 ml per 10 L and soak seeds to help soften the seed coat and encourage faster germination.
Note on pH: Adding Rhizotonic may slightly raise pH, always check and adjust pH after mixing into nutrient waters.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What plants and systems is Rhizotonic suitable for?Rhizotonic works with all common media, soil, coco, hydro, rockwool and is suitable for seedlings, cuttings, transplants or established plants.
When should I start using Rhizotonic?
From the earliest stage, during seed germination or propagation; also after transplanting or any time plant roots are under stress. Continued use during early growth supports strong root development.
Can I use Rhizotonic during the whole life cycle?
Yes, it’s safe for seedlings to mature plants. Many growers use it early on, or when plants are under stress.
Is it compatible with other nutrients?
Yes, Rhizotonic is designed to work alongside base nutrients and other additives. Always dilute properly and mix Rhizotonic first then other nutrients; avoid mixing concentrates directly.
Does it help with transplant shock?
Yes, Rhizotonic helps strengthen root growth and speed recovery when plants are moved or transplanted, reducing stress and boosting resilience.
If you’re starting seedlings, rooting cuttings, re-potting plants, or simply want to give your garden a solid root foundation, Canna Rhizotonic is one of the most effective root stimulators you can use. It encourages strong root systems, supports nutrient uptake, helps plants recover from stress and improves overall vigour and yield potential.
