CytoFlor™ is a powerful PGR used to control flowering and branching in horticultural crops. It contains the active ingredient 6-benzyladenine (6-BA) and belongs to the group of growth regulators known as cytokinins. CytoFlor promotes flowering in certain ornamental crops and increases lateral or basal branching. CytoFlor can also reduce the overall height of specific plants, resulting in more compact and marketable growth.

Crop Categories:

Why choose CytoFlor over other 6-BA products?
The answer comes down to formulation and absorption time. The faster the product absorbs, the sooner it can go to work, and the less product runs off of the foliage and away from the plant. Watch this video to see how fast a leaf absorbs CytoFlor.
