Lihocin Growth Regulator (Chlormequat Chloride 50% SL) – Boosts Yield
Lihocin Growth Regulator
Technical Name: Chlormequat Chloride 50% SL
Lihocin is a powerful plant growth regulator (PGR) used to reduce vegetative growth and enhance reproductive development across various crops. By inhibiting gibberellin synthesis, it redirects the plant’s energy towards flowering and fruiting, leading to improved yield and better quality produce.
Mode of Action
Chlormequat Chloride, the active ingredient in Lihocin, inhibits gibberellins — the plant hormones responsible for cell elongation and vegetative growth. This redirection of energy allows plants to produce larger and heavier fruits and vegetables.
Key Features & Benefits
- Reduces excessive vegetative growth
- Promotes flowering and fruit setting
- Improves fruit/vegetable size and weight
- Optimizes nutrient and energy allocation in plants
- Effective across a wide range of crops
