Clonex is a high-performance rooting hormone gel that contains plant hormones, anti-fungal agents, essential vitamins and trace nutrients in a tenacious gel base. Unlike powders or liquids, the gel stays in contact with the cutting’s stem, sealing the cut tissue and promoting rapid root cell development. This provides young cuttings with the ideal environment to develop vigorous, healthy root systems, making propagation easier and more successful.
Key Features & Benefits

- Seals & Protects Cut Tissue: The gel instantly coats and seals fresh cut ends to reduce the risk of infection and dehydration during the critical rooting phase.
- Anti-Fungal Protection: Built-in anti-fungal agents help guard against stem rot and microbial issues common in propagation.
- Nutrients & Trace Elements Included: Provides a small amount of feed to support newly forming roots right from the start.
- Gel Stays In Place: The thick gel won’t blow away like powders or wash off like liquids, it remains in contact with the cutting throughout the rooting process.
