Drip Hydro Dip Cloning Gel - 32oz

 A defined auxin signal for growers who want tighter propagation windows and repeatable starts.

What Is Dip?

Dip is a professional-grade rooting gel built around 0.35% Indole-3-butyric acid (IBA). It delivers a consistent auxin signal directly at the cut site to support uniform root initiation across trays.

Formulated as a clear, no-dye gel, Dip integrates cleanly into modern propagation workflows. It applies precisely, stays visible during use, and avoids unnecessary additives that complicate the process.

If you care how your garden finishes, it starts with how it begins.

Key Attributes:

• Category: Rooting gel
• Active Ingredient: Indole-3-butyric acid (IBA) 0.35% (3,500 ppm)
• Purpose: Deliver a defined rooting signal at the cut site
• Application Methods: Direct-to-media, direct-to-stem, or dispense-and-dip
• Constraint: Do not dip cuttings directly into the bottle
• Use Window: Propagation only
• Compatibility: Cannabis, ornamentals, herbs, fruit and flower-producing plants; plugs, cubes, peat-based and coco-based media

Key Benefits:

• Delivers a 0.35% IBA auxin signal to support fast, reliable root initiation
• Helps narrow rooting windows for more uniform tray performance
• Clear, no-dye gel allows precise application and cleaner propagation workflows
• Supports structured, repeatable propagation when paired with proper environment
• Integrates into existing clone room SOPs without altering feed programs

Why Growers Use It

• Supports Uniform Root Initiation
  A calibrated 0.35% IBA concentration helps narrow variability across cuttings when environment and technique are controlled.
• Tightens Rooting Windows
  More consistent initiation supports more predictable transplant timing across trays.
• Improves Nutrient Mobility
  Organic acids help chelate minerals like calcium, magnesium, and iron for more consistent movement through irrigation and root uptake.
• Clean, Visible Application
  Clear gel formula allows you to see exactly what is applied without staining benches or tools.
• Flexible Workflow Fit
  Can be applied direct-to-media, direct-to-stem, or dispensed into a container for dipping. It adapts to existing clone room SOPs.
• Propagation-Only Focus
  Dip is a rooting signal. It does not alter nutrient programs or downstream feed strategy.

What’s Inside — and Why It Works

Indole-3-Butyric Acid (IBA) — 0.35% (3,500 ppm)
IBA is an auxin that plays a central role in root initiation.

When applied to a fresh cutting, it directs cells near the wound site to differentiate into root-producing tissue rather than forming callus alone.

At the correct concentration, IBA supports:

• Faster root initiation
• Increased number of root sites
• More uniform early root density

The concentration is calibrated to provide a strong initiation signal without overwhelming developing tissue.

How Dip Works

Propagation is a wound-response process.

When a cutting is taken, hormonal balance shifts at the cut site. Dip reinforces that signal precisely where it matters.

• Root Signal Activation
  IBA concentrates at the wound zone, initiating root primordia formation.
• Early Root Development
  More consistent initiation supports improved early water uptake and structural stability.
• Transplant Readiness
  Uniform early rooting supports smoother transitions into vegetative growth.
  Dip supports the signal.

Environment, cutting health, and workflow determine the outcome.

How to Use Dip

• Method 1: Direct-to-Media
  1. Recommended for minimal cross-contamination
  2. Squeeze a small amount of gel directly into the media hole
  3. Insert cutting immediately
• Method 2: Direct-to-Stem
  1. Apply gel directly to the cut end of the stem
  2. Insert into propagation media
• Method 3: Dispense and Dip
  1. Fastest method for high-throughput sessions
  2. Dispense gel into a clean container
  3. Dip each cutting
  4. Discard remaining gel after session

Do not dip cuttings directly into the bottle.

Maintain stable humidity, temperature, and moisture levels during early root development.

Why It Belongs in Your Propagation Workflow

Dip is defined hormonal signal designed to reduce variability at the earliest stage of the run.

Use Dip if you want to:

• Standardize propagation across trays
• Tighten transplant timing
• Maintain clean, controlled clone room workflows
• Integrate a rooting signal without complicating feed programs

Consistency begins at the cut.
