Darrick Sultan Triacontanol 0.1% EW Plant Growth Regulator – Boosts Yield, Fruit Size & Plant Vigour

Darrick Sultan is a plant growth regulator (PGR) formulated with Triacontanol 0.1% EW, a proven metabolic activator that supports healthier, more productive crops. Triacontanol is a naturally occurring fatty alcohol found in plant cuticle waxes and beeswax. It is also known as melissyl alcohol or myricyl alcohol. Sultan works by stimulating key physiological functions in the plant, which helps improve flowering, fruit development, and overall yield.

This easy-to-use liquid formulation is suitable for cotton, paddy, fruit crops, and a wide range of vegetables. It is also a practical choice for kitchen gardening, making it useful for both small-scale home growers and large commercial farms. Farmers use Sultan to get bigger fruits, stronger plants, and better crop output across the season.

Darrick Sultan is available as a liquid emulsifiable water-based (EW) formulation. The recommended dose is 100 ml per acre mixed in 200 litres of water, applied as a uniform foliar spray during active growth stages. It is a gentle, plant-compatible product when used at the recommended dose, and it supports better nutrient and water uptake in the soil.

Key Benefits

• Acts as a metabolic activator that stimulates plant growth and vigour.
• Promotes enhanced flowering and better fruit development.
• Improves fruit size and increases overall crop yield.
• Supports stronger vegetative growth and plant strength.
• Increases water and nutrient uptake from the soil.
• Builds stress tolerance in crops against drought and heat.
• Helps maintain crop and soil health while reducing physiological disorders.
• Suitable for cotton, paddy, fruits, vegetables, and kitchen gardening.

How It Works

Triacontanol works as a metabolic activator and growth stimulant. It stimulates key metabolic processes in the plant, including protein synthesis, photosynthesis, and enzymatic activity. This leads to increased chlorophyll production, which improves the plant's ability to capture sunlight and convert it into energy.

With better photosynthesis and nutrient uptake, the plant grows more vigorously and produces more flowers and fruits. The improved physiological activity also helps the crop tolerate stress conditions such as drought and heat. Because Triacontanol is a naturally occurring fatty alcohol, it is gentle on plants and supports healthy growth without harsh effects when used at the recommended dose.

Mix 100 ml of Sultan in 200 litres of clean water per acre. Apply as a uniform foliar spray to ensure complete coverage of the crop. Use a knapsack or power sprayer for even application. Apply during active growth stages for best results.

When to Use

Apply Darrick Sultan during the active growth stages of the crop for the best response. For cotton, spray from the vegetative to flowering stage to support bigger bolls and higher yield. For paddy, apply at the early tillering stage to encourage better tillering and yield. For fruit crops such as mango, banana, and citrus, apply from fruit setting to early growth to get larger fruit size. For vegetables, apply during the vegetative stage to improve fruit and flower size.

Avoid spraying during strong sunlight or windy conditions, as this can reduce the effectiveness of the application.
