The chemical Triacontanol, is used in commercial horticulture to improve plant growth worldwide. As a photosynthesis enhancer it increases plant growth in combination with a number of other plant growth regulating actions.

Can be used safely on fruit, vegetables, and leaf crops. Products are safe to eat, crop and harvest after plant treatments at recommended concentrations.
Natural organic product. Breaks down naturally as plants grow. This plant growth regulator can be found naturally in a range of plants. Found  in alfalfa
sugar cane and tea leaves.

Used on a wide range of food crops worldwide in fields and glasshouses to grow tomatoes, cucumbers and melons.
Widespread use in horticulture worldwide.

Classified as a plant growth regulator it can have a number of commercially important effects on how plants grow.

Triacontanol can affect growth by its effect on photosynthesis, plant metabolism, and can increase the growth of roots, shoots and flower production.

Science and horticulture use Triacontanol for the following benefits in a range of plants. Now also available for hobbyists and enthusiastic amateurs or anyone who grows plants. It is easy to mix, use and apply to plants growing anywhere.

Plant growth regulator Triacontanol used on plants

• Increase plant or crop yield.
• Enhance photosynthesis and plant metabolism.
• Induce the production of flower buds and flowering.
• Allow the production of bigger leaves, and bigger root system.
• Increase cell growth in roots, and used to produce thicker foliage and flowers.
• Production of robust plants more resistant to disease and pathogens.
• Increase basal branching of rosette plants, and allow more basal breaks.
• Improve establishment and growth of young plants produced from cuttings, seed or plugs.
• Used to help plants suffering nutrient and growth deficiencies.

Plant growth regulator Triacontanol used in-vitro

• Improve in-vitro shoot production, axillary branching and root growth in micropropagation.
• Improve aseptic orchid seedling production aerial and root growth.
• Produce more robust in-vitro seedling plants better adapted to establishment out of flask and reduce losses.
• Can be used on many tropical orchid seedlings during flask stage by adding to orchid media.
  

The chemical composition.

1- triacontanol, n-triacontanol

common alternative names: myricyl alcohol, melissyl alcohol, tria-contanol.

C30H62O Molecular Weight: 438.82 Melting point : 80-83oC 90% pure.

White powder, stable in light, air, alkalii. For prolonged storage keep at 2-8 degC.

Low toxicity, safe to humans and animals. No phytotoxicity at standard application rates

Not soluble in water.

Dissolve in alcohol, n-butyl alcohol, isopropyl alcohol, ethyl ether, chloroform, petroleum, polysorbate20 (Tween20). The solution may need heating to improve solubility.

Store in a cool dry dark place. We supply in a leak proof sachet. We suggest Triacontanol is stored in the dark in a refrigerator at 2-8deg C. The foil sachet will eliminate light. We suggest using triacontanol solution soon after mixing and preferably use within a few days.

Mixing the chemical Triacontanol to use.

As a dilution example: How to make a 25ppm Triacontanol solution for spraying foliage.

25ppm is equivalent to 25mg/1000ml (1.0litre).

Weigh 25mg triacontanol powder.( A cheap portable battery electronic digital scale is easy to use and widely available on the internet or eBay) * see section below if wanting to estimate!

Dissolve powder in a small volume of alcohol. 5-10ml. Alcohol solvents listed above. The solution may need slight heating to improve solubility. Take care with flammable liquids!  Any white deposits seen after dissolving are manufacturing wax. The active plant growth regulators (PGR) of  Triacontanol will be already dissolved, however this wax can be removed by either adding a larger volume of alcohol solvents or heating again. When the wax has dissapeared, add this to your final water volume. Any wax deposits will be broken down by bacteria during the course of uptake by plants. It will not harm plant foliage or roots.

Alternatively dissolve in 1-2ml of Polysorbate20. Polysorbate solutions do not require heating. Using a pyrex test tube makes this very easy. After dissolving, shake the mix well. You will be left with a white emulsion concentrate. You may see some white wax deposits from manufacturing.  This is normal

Measure 1000ml (1.0litre) of good quality water and to this add the freshly mixed solution. Shake or stir.

For triacontanol diluted with alcohols, add a foliage wetter such as Physan 20, Add 1-5 drops. If this wetter is not available use liquid hand dish washing soap at 1-5 drops. There is no need to add a foliage wetter if you have used Polysorbate20

Use an inexpensive hand sprayer to spray your plants with. It is best to shake before each spraying. Aim for coating the upper surface of the plant leaves thoroughly, Spay enough to allow drip down from the leaves. Spray stems and shoots also. Do not spray during bright sunshine. Aim to spray at the beginning of the day, when plants are starting to grow. Do not allow leaves to remain wet overnight.

Store this spray solution in the refrigerator or cool and aim to spray and use. If the solution is cold, remember to bring the solution temperature up to that of the foliage before spraying to stop cold damage to leaves.

* If you have no scales and want to estimate. We also supply sachets of 2.0gms(2000mg) of Triacontanol. Simply divide the powder into x20 piles of 100mg, Then subdivide a 100mg into x4. This will give you approximately 25mg. For foliage spraying there is some degree of flexibility on concentrations from 1-25ppm is suggested.

Our web site text has been internationally copyrighted since originally published in 2006.

As these sellers are acting in a criminal way there is no guarantee their product is what they says it is. It could simply be a white powder.
If products are not laboratory stored correctly they loose bioactivity. Plant growth regulators have a shelf life. Old or badly stored chemicals should be discarded and never purchased.

You should be able to trust your supplier.

Their illegal activity has been reported to eBay and VeRO as copyright infringement and stealing. This will be persued with every infringement.

Experience.
At Triplantanol we have over 40 years experience in commercial horticulture, nurseries and plant research. I am a qualified plant scientist with a science degree, BSc Botany. London (Hons) and I have also worked for many years in a University Research Department in the UK on plant research.  Information is on our main web site.

Quality control
We assay all chemicals we sell. First we perform a chemical analysis. We then test products on our indicator plants and we also perform in-vitro tests on aseptic plant cultures in our own Plant Tissue Culture Laboratory. These results mean we are certain that our plant growth regulators work. We then laboratory store our chemicals under the correct conditions for their shelf life. Only the very best quality assured products are sent to customers. We give advice on storage with every order.

Repeat sales
Many of our sales on eBay and on our web site are repeat orders because our customers trust us and we are a plant business with many years experience selling to customers and nurseries.
