What Is Clonex? Successful Plant Cloning in a Bottle

The Clonex brand has been responsible for the successful cloning of plants since 1988. It all started with Clonex Rooting Gel, which is now a benchmark product within the hydroponic industry.

Clonex Rooting Gel is distributed worldwide. Hydrodynamics International (HDI) introduced it to the United States in 1997. HDI is a sister company to Growth Technology, the original makers of Clonex.

What is Clonex?

Clonex itself is a brand name of propagation products. The flagship product in this line is Clonex Rooting Gel. When most people ask, “What is Clonex?”, they’re referring to the popular gel product. Clonex Rooting Gel is used when taking a plant cutting.

During the process of taking cuttings, a grower will dip the cut end of the plant cutting into Clonex gel. Clonex gel contains IBA, a plant hormone that promotes root formation.

The proprietary blend is housed in a purple gel base that sticks to the plant cuttings, protecting the cut end from air and contaminants.

Clonex Rooting Gel leads the way in plant propagation, and has been responsible for the successful rooting of billions of plant cuttings since hitting the market in 1988.

Clonex Is More Than a Rooting Gel

Since the launch of Clonex gel, multiple other Clonex products have entered the market. Each one aids in the successful rooting and growth of plant clones.

Clonex Clone Solution was the next Clonex product to join the brand. It is a plant nutrient that’s specifically made to meet the nutritional needs and healthy development requirements of rooted clones and seedlings. It works best in conjunction with Clonex gel.

Clonex Mist was launched in 2012 as a ready-to-use foliar spray for young plants. Studies show that using Clonex Mist results in up to 30% longer roots and 156% more roots than misting with water alone.

Clonex Root Maximizer is a mycorrhizae product recently released under the Clonex brand. Mycorrhizae works by extending the plant’s reach, and allowing it to access more water and minerals in the soil.

This mycorrhizae product also includes beneficial bacteria and Trichoderma which combine to improve the health and vigor of the plant.

What is Clonex? Clonex Is for Cloning Plants

In a nutshell, Clonex is for the successful propagation of plants. It’s available online and in hydro stores and plant nurseries throughout the U.S.

For almost three decades Clonex has provided explosive root development that serious growers and plant nurseries depend upon for successful and profitable plant propagation.
