Accelerate root initiation, expand vascular density, and witness visible root development in as little as 5 days with SHOGUN Katana Roots. This highly concentrated, premium seaweed-based bio-stimulant is engineered to establish a massive, highly intricate root network capable of driving elite nutrient uptake and safeguarding your crop against root diseases.

Unlike standard root boosters that use harsh thermal or chemical extraction methods, Katana Roots is derived via a specialised cold-pressing technique that preserves delicate, crop-vital hormones and vitamins. Infused with a targeted blend of auxins, boron, and biotin, it functions as a pure bio-stimulant that optimises root-to-shoot ratios across all growing media without any risk of overfeeding or nutrient burn.

Core Cultivation Advantages:

  • Visible Growth in 5 Days: Combines boron and natural auxins to trigger rapid lateral root cell differentiation and root hair elongation well ahead of standard biological timelines.

  • Cold-Pressed Seaweed Extraction: Formulated using a clean, chemical-free cold-pressing method. This prevents the denaturing of sensitive organic compounds, ensuring that vital growth hormones, enzymes, and Vitamin B12 remain completely active and bioavailable.

  • Biotin-Driven Structural Thickness: Enriched with biotin to actively thicken root walls, ensuring your root system is structurally robust and resilient against pathogens like Pythium (root rot).

  • Hormonal Balance & Stress Relief: Packed with pure B vitamins and essential amino acids that chemically calm plants experiencing transplant shock, extreme temperature swings, or propagation stress.

  • Versatile Tri-Action Application: Engineered as a highly concentrated, non-clogging formula that can be deployed as an active reservoir additive, a propagation cube soak, or a highly effective foliar spray.

Application Target & Timing

SHOGUN Katana Roots is a dedicated root-zone and foliar bio-stimulant suitable for use throughout propagation, all vegetative weeks, and early flowering.

Application Target Treatment Type Substrate Integration
Cuttings, Seedlings, Veg, & Early Bloom Crops Concentrated Bio-stimulant (Additives / Soak / Foliar) 100% universal compatibility across Soil, Coco Coir, Rockwool, and all Hydroponic configurations (NFT, DWC, Flood & Drain).

Step-by-Step Usage Instructions:

Because Katana Roots is a bio-stimulant rather than a base nutrient, it contains no stand-alone NPK values and is perfectly optimised to be run alongside SHOGUN Start during propagation for a flawless nutritional balance.

1.Prepare your cuttings and seed plugs:Weeks 1–2 (Propagation).

For initial root initiation, dilute Katana Roots at a rate of 5.0ml per litre of clean water. Thoroughly soak your rockwool cubes, root plugs, or jiffy pellets in this solution before inserting your fresh cuttings or seeds.

2.Establish the vegetative root framework:Veg Weeks 1–4.

During the entire vegetative growth cycle, add Katana Roots to your main reservoir or watering can at a highly concentrated maintenance dose of 0.2ml per litre.

3.Support the early flowering transition:Bloom Weeks 1–3.

Maintain a dosing rate of 0.2ml per litre through the first three weeks of the flowering stage to support the plant's final structural stretch.

4.Transition out of root stimulation:Weeks 4–9 (Late Bloom).

Stop applying Katana Roots from Week 4 through Week 8. During the final week of the flowering cycle, flush your medium with pure water only. (Note: Extra weeks can be added between weeks 4 and 5 if your specific crop requires a longer bloom cycle).

5.Apply as a targeted canopy mist:Foliar Deployment.

Alternatively, dilute Katana Roots at 2.0ml per litre of water and apply using a clean pressure sprayer. Mist the leaves lightly under low light or right before the night cycle. This foliar method is ideal during hot summer months when root zones become less efficient at absorption.
