What is a Plant Growth Regulator?
A plant growth regulator does exactly what its name implies: It regulates the growth of plants. It keeps them from growing too quickly and dying before you have a chance to turn a profit. Plant growth regulators also have minimal or no phytotoxic effects on the plants when they're used as directed. They're also mostly used on marketable crops such as poinsettias and other ornamentals.
How Sumagic Plant Growth Regulator Works
Sumagic contains the active ingredient uniconazole, a chemical that inhibits gibberellin biosynthesis in the plants. This chemical reduces overall height and slows the process by which the plant grows. Sumagic also improves plant quality by promoting greater leaf thickness, vivid colors and chlorophyll content. According to the label, Sumagic has also increased flower number and size in shade houses and greenhouses.
Where to Use Sumagic
You can apply Sumagic as a spray or a soil drench during preplanting and postemergence. Use it on plants in water collectors or subirrigation benches, and apply it to the soil before planting bulbs and plugs. It works to reduce plant growth and improve the overall quality of bedding plants, foliage, woody species and bulb crops. Use Sumagic plant growth regulator on the following plants:
- Marigolds
- Snapdragons
- Impatiens
- Pansies
- Chrysanthemums
- Geraniums
- Poinsettias
- Easter lilies
