## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can this be used for cuttings to root in water?**
A: Yes this is exactly the plant hormone you need to help cuttings root. That's what I bought it for.
The Indole-3-butyric acid in this product is an Auxin which prompts new plant cells to become roots.

**Q: Seller: should this leave a white film (looks like mold, w/ tiny filaments) on top of my soil after watering with correct concentration?**
A: Have to be careful when using soils. I tried using some Coconut soil provided in some packaging with plant seeds. And I got the white film looking like mold you described. This is the only time I have had that happen. I now refuse to use that coconut stuff. Only use potting soil. I hope this helps.

**Q: how do i dilute for planting tree?**
A: We used two ounces per gallon

**Q: So who's going to know if I use this in California?**
A: Only YOU & whoever you tell. AWESOME Stuff... God Bless...
