Comments: To help reduce bottom leaf yellowing during propagation (e.g., on delayed shipments or where cuttings have gotten warm during shipping), Fascination ® can be sprayed on the cuttings at 2.0–2.5 ppm within 24 hours after sticking. Calliope Large growth can be controlled using sprays of Cycocel ® at 1,000 ppm and under hot conditions with a tank mix spray of Cycocel ® (1,000 ppm) + B-Nine ® WSG (2,500 ppm). Bonzi ® sprays are not recommended in propagation because of the chance of getting into the rooting media and stunting the plant. Florel ® can also be sprayed at 300–350 ppm 2.5–3 weeks after sticking and after good root formation to improve branching, reduce premature flowering, and to control growth. 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.
