CULTAR PLANT GROWTH PROMOTER

About Product

• Cultar, produced by Syngenta, is a plant growth regulator (PGR).
• As a systemic PGR, it is absorbed by the plant and transported throughout its tissues.
• It acts by inhibiting the production of gibberellins, which are plant hormones responsible for promoting cell elongation and growth.

Technical Details

• Composition:
  
  

  Component	Content (% W/W)
  Paclobutrazol	23
  Alkylated Napthalene Sulphonate	3.0
  Xanthangum	0.03
  Sodium bentonite/Aluminum Silicate	2.5
  Polydimethyl Siloxanes+Silica	0.3
  Benzisothiazolin-3-one	0.01
  Propylene glycol	5.0

  
  
• Mode of Action: Cultar works by blocking the production of gibberellins, which are plant hormones that stimulate growth. When gibberellins are blocked, the plant’s growth is reduced. This results in a denser plant with smaller leaves and fruits.

Key Features and Benefits

• By controlling vegetative growth, Cultar makes plants more compact and enhances their fruit quality.
• Cultar boosts fruit size, colour, and yield by regulating plant growth.
• It helps plants to flower and set fruit earlier by inhibiting vegetative growth.
• It saves time and labour costs by reducing the need for pruning.
• Increases plant tolerance to pests and diseases by controlling vegetative growth.
