Propagation Nutrient Kit – Boost Rooting & Strike Rates
The Propagation Nutrient Kit is designed to maximise your cutting strike rates and overall plant health. It combines trusted rooting gel, premium mycorrhizae, and proven liquid feeds, giving your young plants the strongest possible start.
Key Benefits
- Clonex Rooting Gel (50ml): Trusted rooting aid that seals cuttings and promotes rapid root growth.
- Dynomyco Mycorrhizal Inoculant (200g): Enhances nutrient uptake and root development.
- Shogun Start (250ml): Balanced feed for seedlings and cuttings; promotes strong early growth.
- Shogun Katana Roots (250ml): Stimulates root branching and resilience during propagation.
Why You Need It
Propagation is the most vulnerable stage in a plant’s life cycle.
Without the right rooting gel, mycorrhizae, and starter feeds, cuttings can wilt, rot, or fail to strike; this kit removes the guesswork and ensures strong, healthy root systems that set plants up for long-term success.
How does it all work together?
- Clonex Rooting Gel: Forms a protective seal around the cutting base, locking in moisture and nutrients while delivering two types of rooting hormones directly to the plant tissue for rapid root initiation.
- Dynomyco Mycorrhizae: Introduces beneficial fungi that colonise the root zone; this creates a symbiotic relationship that boosts nutrient absorption, improves drought resistance, and accelerates root mass development.
- Shogun Start: Provides a gentle but complete nutrient profile tailored to young plants; it fuels early growth without overloading fragile root systems.
- Shogun Katana Roots: Stimulates extensive root branching and increases resilience; plants develop stronger, denser root networks that improve stability and uptake.
How to Set Up
- Dip cuttings: Use Clonex Gel to seal and coat the cutting base.
- Add Dynomyco: Dust or mix ~1g per cutting into the root zone.
- Feed lightly: Mix Shogun Start at 4ml/L and Katana Roots at 0.2–1ml/L in water for early feeds.
- Maintain conditions: Keep humidity high and avoid overwatering while roots establish.
How Many Plants?
This kit will comfortably cover around 160–200 cuttings during propagation. The Clonex and liquid feeds can stretch to hundreds, but the limiting factor is the 200g Dynomyco pack, which is typically used at ~1g per cutting; you can buy more Dynomyco Mycorrhizal Inoculants here.

Top Tip: For best results, use clean tools and fresh media every time you take cuttings; it reduces the risk of disease and gives your plants the strongest start.
