Sultar Plant Growth Regulator

Sultar Paclobutrazol 23% SC is a plant growth regulator (PGR) and fungicide formulated with 23% Paclobutrazol, a triazole compound that inhibits gibberellin biosynthesis in plants. This inhibition leads to reduced internodal elongation, promoting compact growth and enhancing root development. Additionally, Paclobutrazol exhibits fungicidal properties, offering protection against certain fungal pathogens.

Key Benefits

• Controlled Vegetative Growth: Limits excessive shoot elongation, resulting in sturdier, more compact plants.

• Enhanced Root Development: Promotes stronger root systems, improving nutrient and water uptake.

• Improved Fruit Quality: Leads to better color, size, and taste of fruits.

• Increased Yield: Boosts overall productivity by redirecting energy from vegetative growth to reproductive growth.

• Disease Resistance: Enhances plant resistance to various environmental stresses and fungal infections.

• Earlier Flowering: Stimulates early flowering, beneficial for off-season production.

Recommended Crops

Sultar Paclobutrazol 23% SC is effective on a variety of crops, including:

• Fruit Trees: Mango, Apple, Pomegranate, Grapes, Cashew, and others.

• Vegetables: Tomato, Brinjal, Chilli, Cauliflower, Onion, Carrot, and more.

• Legumes: Groundnut, Soybean, Black Gram, Green Gram, Peas.

• Other Crops: Garlic, Potato, and various horticultural plants.

Mode of Action

Paclobutrazol functions by inhibiting the enzyme ent-kaurene oxidase, a key component in gibberellin biosynthesis. This results in reduced cell elongation, leading to shorter internodes and a more compact plant structure. The compound is absorbed through the roots and translocated via the xylem to the growing points, ensuring uniform distribution and effectiveness.

Application Guidelines

🌳 Soil Drench for Trees

• Method: Apply as a collar drench around the tree trunk.

• Dosage:

  • For trees aged 7–15 years: 14 ml per tree.

  • For trees aged 16–25 years: 19 ml per tree.

  • For trees over 25 years: 30 ml per tree.

• Timing: Apply after harvesting to rejuvenate older trees and promote balanced growth.

Foliar Spray for Crops

• Method: Dilute with water and spray evenly on the foliage.

• Dosage: 5–8 ml per 15 liters of water.

• Timing: Apply during active vegetative growth to control excessive elongation and improve fruit quality.
