3.5–4 Weeks 70–74 °F (21–23 °C)
Recommended
Comments: Grandalia has moderate to high vigor and will generally need PGR use in propagation. To control growth after rooting, sprays of B-Nine ® WSG (1,500–2,500 ppm) are usually sufficient. A tank-mix spray of Florel ® (350–500 ppm) + B-Nine ® WSG (1,500–2,500 ppm) can also be used to control growth and improve branching. Do not spray Florel ® on stressed or weak cuttings. For all sprays listed above, the mist should be off for a minimum of one hour for the PGR to absorb into the leaf tissue.

Comments: Darla has moderate vigor and will generally need a PGR treatment in propagation. To control growth after rooting, sprays of B-Nine ® WSG (2,500 ppm) or Florel ® (350 ppm) are sufficient. It is also becoming popular for growers to combine Florel ® (350 ppm) with the B-Nine ® WSG (1,500 ppm) to increase growth control and to improve branching. These Florel ® + B-Nine ® WSG combo sprays should be applied to actively growing plants. Do not spray B-Nine ® WSG or Florel ® + B-Nine ® WSG tank mixes on stressed or weak cuttings.
