WHAT KQOTONE DOES 
ROOTONE is a root-fomiing stimulant when applied 
to cuttings, seeds, or bulbs. It is a powder, and gets its 
root-forming activity from the synthetic plant hormones 
or growth substances which it contains. It is not a 
fertilizer or plant food. 
ROOTONE is easy to use. ROOTONE stimulates 
the natural tendency for roots to form on slips or cut¬ 
tings, so that rooting takes place in a much shorter 
time, heavier root systems are formed, and fewer cuttings 
die from disease. 
When seeds and bulbs are dusted with ROOTONE 
and planted, germination is quicker (most noticeable 
in sluggish seeds like those of perennials), and root 
growth is faster and heavier. This means stronger, 
healthier plants, and frequently results in faster growth 
and earlier flowering. 
ROOTONE keeps for years in the dry state, and 
becomes effective only in the presence of sufficient 
moisture to dissolve out the hormone, as in the seed 
flat or cutting bed.
