Hi everyone, Just ordered Nitrozyme Has anyone tried this on banana plants. It's hormones to increase the size of plants and flowers 25 to 50%. How about soaking seeds? I just started soaking seeds in Epsom salts. Also scarified. They all sunk. Guess they are viable. Just a thought on the Nitrozyme. :waving:

I don't know if size of plant or flower can be up to 50% bigger.
Sure do good, I used some, but i have had no test group with and without nitrozyme to tell % more growth.

It's written "seed treatment" on the box, maybe can work.

Does cytokinins in nitrozyme do something for germination?
Or another component in it?
(Ingredients: cytokinins, vitamins A, B1, B2, B6, B12, C, D, E, K, along with carbohydrates including alginic acid and macro and trace elements )

Typical Analysis

A. Active Ingredient

keep us update if you test it on germination !

I sure will! Love experimenting. Maybe a test on half w/ Nitrozyme.
Thanks again!

I've conducted a small (hardly) scientific study, no double blind studys here, on the effects of different seed treatments and the effect on speed of germination.

I tried nitrozyme at the concentration recommended for seed treatment, 20 ml per litre; tap water; epsom salts at 1 gram per litre, 2 gram per litre and 3 gram per litre.

I found that for speed and % germination 2 gram per litre of epsom salts was by far the best and actually water was better than nitrozyme.

I used to swear by it for germination, but now I use it as a plant tonic.

Don't start me on scarifying...

Sunfish, what would the pics be of? a bottle of nitrozyme?
