Vita Grow Ready to Use Rooting Compounds is a great product. This product works where others fail. This is the same formula that production nurseries use to clone ten thousand starts at a time. Nurseries don't have time for gels. They need rooting compounds to be effective, easy and fast or they won't use it. Simply dip the cutting into the compound for 5 seconds and plant in your favorite medium. Use a covered dome and under-tray heater for best results.* EPA registered in all states. *Not for sale in CA at this time.
