Growth Regulator Cambistat

Cambistat is the newest tree growth regulator with the active ingredient paclobutrazol. It is highly effective at reducing the growth rate of trees over a three year period, and thus is an excellent method of reducing tree maintenance costs. Extensive research and field trials have also shown that indirect effects on growth regulation can provide numerous health benefits for trees. By reducing the amount of energy allocated to shoot growth, more energy/carbon/substrates are available for other uses. Research has shown trees treated with Cambistat have the following responses:

• Tree growth rate is reduced between 40 - 60 for three years with one treatment of Cambistat®.
• Root system enhancement
• Improve drought and heat resistance
• Higher tolerance to disease
• Increase health and longevity
