Was out browsing products at a gardening store today just to see what they have and I bought a bottle of Pokon Chrysal CLEAR, which is intended to keep cut flowers alive longer and healthier in water.

At first I thought it was a root hormone, I thought it may be good for my up and coming cloning next week, now I'm not so sure.
Then I thought maybe its high in P and could come in handy for the flowering season.
I'm not so sure about that either now.

Their site gives no useful information either since its under construction, Pokon is a big Dutch company, but thats all I can figure out.

Can anyone help me?

Thanks.

It's for flourists and bouquet makers. It is used on cut flowers to keep them looking good longer. Not what you are looking for with your buds.

k, thanks a lot. Is it any good for providing P during flowering do you think?
It is anti-bacterial, however:

Another thought, inspired by that last link:


10. Keep your flower arrangements away from fruit, especially bananas, as they give off ethylene gas which speeds up maturing, drastically cutting down on their life span.

Ethylene gas speeds up maturing? Hmmm, could that be useful?
