House & Garden Roots Excelurator Gold — Professional Root Stimulator for Soil & Coco
Best for: Growers wanting explosive root development and disease protection without premium brand pricing
Our thoughts
This is the real deal. Roots Excelurator Gold is widely recognised as one of the most potent root stimulators on the market — and for good reason. It's concentrated enough that a small bottle goes a very long way, making it proper value despite the professional-grade performance. One we sell a lot of for growers serious about root zone health.
House & Garden Roots Excelurator Gold is a professional-grade root stimulator formulated specifically for soil and coco substrates. It's designed to accelerate root development, increase root mass, and protect your root zone against harmful pathogens like root rot — all while being concentrated enough that a little goes a long way. Unlike weaker root boosters that offer gradual improvement, Roots Excelurator works fast and visibly.
How it compares
This sits at the professional tier of root stimulators, but the concentration ratio makes it genuinely good value.
- More potent and faster-acting than General Hydroponics RapidStart or similar mid-tier alternatives
- Significantly more concentrated than most competitors — a 250ml bottle treats up to 250 gallons
- Contains natural ingredients (cold-pressed kelp, vitamin B complex, beneficial microbes, molasses) without synthetic plant growth regulators or heavy metals
- Growers report it can reduce vegetative time by 7-10 days, delivering real time savings across a crop cycle
Bottom line: professional performance without the professional price tag once you account for dilution rates.
Usage guidance
Roots Excelurator Gold works across your entire early growing cycle:
Propagation & seedlings
Mix at 0.2ml per litre and combine with quarter-strength base nutrients. Soak rockwool or propagation media in the mixture for accelerated rooting and transplant success.
Vegetative phase
Add with every feed at the standard dilution rate (3ml per 10 litres). Growers report noticeably thicker roots and faster development — this is where you'll see the time savings kick in.
Early flowering
Continue using through early bloom to maintain root health and nutrient uptake as flowering demand increases.
Root zone problems
If you're dealing with brown, weak roots or early signs of root disease, Roots Excelurator destroys pathogens while simultaneously promoting rapid healthy root regeneration. It works as both prevention and treatment.
Important: Don't use hydrogen peroxide in the same system, and never apply as a foliar spray — it's root-zone only.
