CapSil ® (spray adjuvant) can be sprayed on the cuttings at a rate of 2–4 oz/100 gal within 1–2 days after sticking to help in rehydration of the cuttings. Misting should be significantly reduced after 2-3 days and after cuttings become fully hydrated.
Recommended 3.5-4 Weeks 72-74 °F (22-23 °C)
Comments: Carita has moderate vigor and will generally need a PGR treatment in propagation. To control growth after rooting, sprays of B-Nine ® WSG (1,500 ppm), or a tank-mix spray of Cycocel ® (1,000 ppm) + B-Nine ® WSG (1,500 ppm) are sufficient. Do not spray Florel ® on angelonias since this can burn foliage and cause significant flower delay. 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.
