Product Applications of Daminozide CAS#1596-84-5
Daminozide is a systemic plant growth regulator authorized for application on ornamental crops in the United States. Target varieties include chrysanthemums, poinsettias and bedding plants cultivated within greenhouse and other covered cultivation facilities.
This product suppresses internode stretching while improving plant tolerance against high temperature, drought and frost stress. It also deepens leaf colour, strengthens stalks, and accelerates blooming, encourages abundant flowers and boosts fruit set. The standard application method is foliar spraying, with usable concentrations spanning 1,500 to 10,000 ppm.
