ROOT!T Rooting Gel w/ Nozzle

ROOT!T Rooting Gel 150mL with Precision Nozzle – Propagation Gel for Cuttings

ROOT!T Rooting Gel 150mL is a ready-to-use hormone-free propagation gel designed to support healthy root development in fresh plant cuttings. Its purpose-designed precision nozzle allows the gel to be applied directly into propagation plugs or growing media, providing a cleaner and more controlled alternative to dipping cuttings into a shared container.

Once applied, the thick gel surrounds the base of the fresh cutting, helping maintain moisture around the cut surface while supporting the plant's natural rooting process.

Suitable for ROOT!T rooting sponges, stonewool, rockwool, peat plugs, coco, compost and soil, ROOT!T Rooting Gel is an excellent choice for home growers, hydroponic gardeners and professional propagators.

Precision Nozzle Application

One of the standout features of ROOT!T Propagation Gel is its precision applicator nozzle.

Traditional rooting gels are often used by dipping a freshly prepared cutting directly into a container of gel. ROOT!T takes a different approach.

The nozzle allows you to dispense the gel directly into the planting hole or propagation plug before inserting the cutting.

This provides several practical advantages:

• More controlled application
• Reduced mess
• Less unnecessary product waste
• Reduced handling of freshly cut stems
• Helps minimise contamination of the remaining gel
• Easy application into small propagation plugs
• Convenient when preparing multiple cuttings

It's particularly useful when working through full propagation trays where consistent, repeatable application is important.

Hormone-Free Rooting Gel

ROOT!T Rooting Gel uses a hormone-free formulation.

Rather than relying on conventional rooting hormones, the gel provides a physical environment around the fresh cutting designed to support the plant's natural rooting process.

This makes ROOT!T an excellent alternative for growers looking for a ready-to-use propagation gel without added rooting hormones.

Designed to Go Directly into the Growing Media

ROOT!T isn't intended to be used like a conventional dip-style rooting gel.

Instead:

Prepare Media → Apply Gel into Planting Hole → Insert Fresh Cutting → Place in Propagator

The precision nozzle allows the gel to be delivered exactly where it is needed.

When the cutting is inserted, the gel surrounds the lower stem and freshly cut surface.

This keeps the application contained within the root zone rather than coating more of the cutting than necessary.

Compatible with Multiple Propagation Media

ROOT!T Rooting Gel can be used across a wide range of propagation systems.

ROOT!T Rooting Sponges

An ideal combination for simple plug-based propagation. Apply the gel directly into the existing planting hole before inserting the cutting.

Rockwool & Stonewool

Suitable for propagation cubes and plugs commonly used in hydroponic growing.

Coco

Can be incorporated into coco plugs, coco coir and other suitable coco-based propagation media.

Peat Plugs

The precision nozzle makes it easy to apply a controlled amount of gel into preformed peat propagation plugs.

Compost & Propagation Mixes

Prepare a suitable planting hole, apply the gel and insert the fresh cutting.

Soil

ROOT!T can also be used for conventional soil-based propagation.

Ideal for Plant Cuttings

Propagation from cuttings allows suitable plants to be reproduced vegetatively.

A fresh cutting initially has no established root system, making the period immediately after cutting particularly important.

ROOT!T can be used for applications including:

• Ornamental plants
• Houseplants
• Herbs
• Suitable vegetables
• Softwood cuttings
• Hardwood cuttings
• Leaf cuttings
• Root cuttings
• Hydroponic propagation
• Nursery propagation
• Indoor gardening
• Greenhouse propagation

Always confirm that the particular plant species is suitable for propagation from the type of cutting being used.

How to Use ROOT!T Rooting Gel

Step 1 – Prepare the Propagation Media

Prepare and appropriately moisten your rooting sponge, propagation plug or chosen growing medium.

Create the planting hole before taking the cutting where necessary.

Step 2 – Select Healthy Plant Material

Choose healthy plant material suitable for propagation.

Avoid weak, diseased or heavily stressed growth.

Step 3 – Use Clean Cutting Tools

Use a clean, sharp and sterile cutting tool.

Freshly cut plant tissue is particularly vulnerable, so good propagation hygiene is important.

Step 4 – Apply ROOT!T Gel

Insert the precision nozzle into the planting hole.

Gently dispense an appropriate amount of ROOT!T Gel directly into the cavity.

Step 5 – Prepare the Cutting

Make the appropriate cut for the plant species being propagated.

Avoid unnecessarily touching or contaminating the freshly cut surface.

Step 6 – Insert Immediately

Place the fresh cutting through the gel and into the growing medium.

Ensure the stem is appropriately supported by the propagation media.

Step 7 – Move to the Propagator

Place the cutting into an appropriate propagation environment.

Step 8 – Maintain Suitable Conditions

Maintain suitable:

• Humidity
• Root-zone temperature
• Air temperature
• Moisture
• Light intensity
• Fresh-air exchange

Requirements vary between plant species.

Complete ROOT!T Propagation System

ROOT!T Rooting Gel can also form part of a broader propagation program alongside complementary ROOT!T products.

ROOT!T Rooting Gel

Provides the gel environment immediately around the fresh cutting.

ROOT!T Natural Rooting Sponges

Provide a purpose-designed propagation medium for establishing new roots.

ROOT!T First Feed

Provides specialised early-stage nutrition as young plants establish.

ROOT!T Cutting Mist

Designed to complement the propagation process during the critical early establishment period.

Propagator

Helps maintain the elevated humidity and stable environment often required by fresh cuttings.

Together, these products allow growers to build a dedicated propagation system from fresh cutting through to early root establishment.

Propagation Environment Matters

Rooting gel is only one component of successful plant propagation.

Fresh cuttings also require an appropriate environment.

Important considerations include:

• Correct temperature
• Suitable humidity
• Appropriate media moisture
• Gentle lighting
• Clean equipment
• Fresh air
• Healthy parent plants

Excessive light, heat, low humidity or saturated propagation media can all negatively affect cuttings regardless of the rooting product being used.

Maintain High Propagation Hygiene

Propagation areas should be kept clean.

Fresh plant wounds can provide opportunities for pathogens, while warm and humid propagators can also create favourable conditions for unwanted fungal or bacterial growth.

Good practices include:

• Sterilising cutting tools
• Washing hands before handling cuttings
• Cleaning propagation trays
• Using clean propagation media
• Removing dead plant material
• Avoiding unnecessary handling
• Keeping the ROOT!T bottle nozzle clean
• Avoiding contact between the nozzle and contaminated material

The nozzle application system helps because fresh cuttings don't need to be repeatedly dipped into the main bottle.

Ready to Use

ROOT!T requires no dilution or mixing.

Simply dispense the required amount directly from the nozzle into the prepared propagation media.

This makes it particularly convenient for growers who want a straightforward propagation product without measuring powders or preparing separate rooting solutions.

Product Specifications

Why Choose ROOT!T Rooting Gel?

ROOT!T Rooting Gel combines a hormone-free propagation formula with an exceptionally practical precision-nozzle bottle.

Rather than repeatedly dipping fresh cuttings into a shared container, the gel is placed directly into the propagation media where it's needed.

This makes it particularly convenient when preparing large numbers of cuttings while also helping minimise contamination of the remaining product.

Its versatility across rooting sponges, rockwool, stonewool, peat, coco, compost and soil also means growers aren't locked into a single propagation medium.

For anyone building a dedicated propagation area, ROOT!T provides a simple, clean and ready-to-use solution for supporting fresh plant cuttings through the early rooting stage.
