What are plant growth regulators? Explained clearly in one article
What growth regulators are commonly used on flowers? Please advise. Plant growth-regulating substances are divided into plant hormones produced internally by plants and chemically synthesized substances with hormone-like activity. As long as a trace amount of such a substance is present, it can promote or inhibit the growth and development of plants, but excessive use can also cause...
What are plant growth regulators? Please explainPlant growth regulators fall under pesticide management. Only plant growth regulator products that have obtained pesticide registration and production licenses may be produced, marketed and used. China has very strict requirements for pesticide registration. Pesticide products applying for registration must undergo extensive testing and strict review and scientific evaluation in terms of product chemistry, efficacy, toxicology, residues and environmental impact. Only those that have been scientifically evaluated and proven to have good control effects, while having controllable impacts on human and animal health and the environment and meeting the requirements for safeguarding human health and environmental safety, may obtain registration. The production and marketing of pesticides must be accompanied by labels approved by the relevant authorities, clearly stating the active ingredients, methods of use and precautions. When using plant growth regulators, they must be used strictly in accordance with the dosage, timing and methods of use stated on the label, and must not be abused.
Fruits and melons ripened with hormones will not harm human health
Plant hormones refer to trace organic substances naturally present in plants that have significant effects on plant growth and development. They are also called natural plant hormones or endogenous plant hormones. Their presence can influence and effectively regulate plant growth and development, including the entire process of plant life from cell growth and division to rooting, sprouting, flowering, fruiting, ripening and abscission. Plant growth regulators are substances that people, after understanding the structure and mechanism of action of natural plant hormones, synthesize artificially to have physiological and biological effects similar to plant hormones. They are used in agricultural production to effectively regulate the reproductive process of crops, achieving goals such as stable and increased yields, improved quality and enhanced crop stress resistance. "When used according to the dosage, timing and methods stated on the approved registration label, plant growth regulators will not harm human health. If used improperly, they may cause crops to grow too quickly, which may have a certain impact on the quality and taste of agricultural products, but they will not harm human health."
