Hitculan Plus - Triacontanol 0.05% GR - HPM
Item description
Hitculan Plus (Triacontanol 0.05% GR) - Granular Plant Growth Regulator
Unlock the full genetic potential of your crops with Hitculan Plus by HPM Chemicals.
Hitculan Plus is a premium Granular (GR) Plant Growth Regulator powered by 0.05% Triacontanol. Unlike messy liquid sprays, this scientifically engineered formula is designed for easy soil application. It acts as a metabolic activator, stimulating the plant's root system from the ground up to ensure robust health and higher yields.
Best For: Farmers seeking to improve root architecture, enhance nutrient uptake, and boost stress tolerance in Rice, Cotton, Groundnut, and Vegetables.
Why Choose This Product? Key Benefits
- ⏱️ Rapid Root Establishment: Stimulates cell division in the root tips, creating a denser root network for faster crop establishment.
- ?️ Advanced Stress Defense: Boosts antioxidant enzymes (SOD/POD) to protect crops against heat, drought, and transplant shock.
- ⏳ Sustained Release Formula: The granular matrix releases the active ingredient slowly, providing continuous nourishment during critical growth stages.
- ?️ Easy Soil Application: No spraying required. Simply broadcast by hand or mix with basal fertilizers like Urea or DAP.
- ? Nutrient Efficiency Multiplier: Enhances the plant's ability to absorb fertilizers from the soil, reducing wastage and maximizing ROI.

How It Works: Mode of Action
Hitculan Plus works at the cellular level to trigger physiological changes that lead to "Healthy Growth" and better yields.
- Root Zone Activation: When broadcasted, the granules release Triacontanol into the rhizosphere. This stimulates the root apical meristems, causing rapid cell division and expansion.
- Enzymatic Boost: It upregulates vital enzymes like Superoxide Dismutase (SOD) and Peroxidase. This biological "stress-busting" mechanism keeps the plant active even during heat or water stress.
- Photosynthetic Pump: It increases chlorophyll content and improves cell membrane permeability, allowing the plant to move sugars (energy) rapidly from leaves to the developing fruit or grain.
The result is a plant with a massive root system capable of absorbing more water and nutrients than untreated crops.
Target Crops & Pests
| Crop | Key Physiological Benefits |
|---|---|
| Rice (Paddy) | Increases productive tillers, improves head rice recovery, and enhances grain filling. |
| Cotton & Groundnut | Reduces boll shedding (Cotton); Improves pegging and pod filling (Groundnut). |
| Tomato & Chilli | Reduces flower drop, increases fruit set, and ensures uniform ripening. |
Dosage & Application Guide
The Golden Rule: Always follow the "Dose per Acre" for accurate results. This is a soil-applied product.
Dosage per Acre, Litre, & Pre-Harvest Interval (PHI)
| Crop | Dose (Kg / Acre) | Water (L / Acre) | Dose (ml / Litre) | PHI (Days) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Rice, Cotton | 10 Kg | N/A (Soil App) | N/A | As per Label |
| Groundnut | 10 Kg | N/A (Soil App) | N/A | As per Label |
| Tomato, Chilli | 10 Kg | N/A (Soil App) | N/A | As per Label |
*PHI = Pre-Harvest Interval: The minimum number of days to wait between the last spray and harvesting.
How to Apply: Best Practices
- Timing: Broadcast 2-3 days before transplanting or sowing to prime the soil.
- Mixing: Mix the 10kg bag with sand or basal fertilizers (Urea/DAP) to ensure uniform distribution across the field.
- Coverage: Ensure the granules settle in the topsoil where the root zone will develop.
- Safety: Always wear PPE (gloves, mask, goggles). Wash hands thoroughly after use.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. Can I mix Hitculan Plus with Urea or DAP?
Yes, it is highly recommended to mix it with basal
fertilizers to save labor and ensure even spreading.
2. Is this product water-soluble for spraying?
No, Hitculan Plus is a Granular (GR) formulation
designed specifically for soil broadcasting, not for foliar
spraying.
3. How does it differ from liquid Triacontanol?
The granular form provides a sustained release of the
active ingredient directly to the roots, whereas liquids are
typically for quick, short-term foliar absorption.
4. Which crops is it most effective on?
It is excellent for field crops like Rice, Wheat,
Cotton, and Groundnut, as well as vegetables like Tomato and
Chilli.
5. Is it safe for the environment?
Yes, when used as directed, it is a bio-rational product
with low toxicity and is safe for soil microflora.
