CX Horticulture Regen-A-Root — Hormone-Free Root Stimulator for All Growing Stages
Best for: Growers wanting healthier roots and better nutrient uptake without hormone-based additives, from cloning through to harvest
Our thoughts
This is a genuinely clever bit of kit. Regen-A-Root does what hormone-based rooting products do — builds serious root mass — but without the risk of suppressing top growth or throwing your nutrient balance out. Works through every stage of the growing cycle, which most root boosters can't claim. Over 40 years of R&D behind it, and it shows.
CX Horticulture Regen-A-Root is a liquid root growth tonic designed to stimulate healthy root development and maximise nutrient uptake across all growing stages. Unlike traditional rooting hormones, Regen-A-Root is hormone-free — it works by providing the natural precursors your plants need to produce their own auxins, giving you stronger roots without the downsides of forced rooting. Just 1ml per litre from clone until harvest. Simple. Effective. Works in any system.
How it compares
Regen-A-Root sits apart from most root stimulators because it doesn't rely on synthetic plant hormones.
-
Vs. hormone-based gels (Clonex, etc.): Those work for cuttings, but they can suppress top growth and limit you to early-stage use. Regen-A-Root runs through flowering without sacrificing plant vigour.
-
Vs. hormone-based powders: Same story — hormone products force root development at the expense of overall plant balance. This lets your plants grow naturally at full potential.
-
Vs. organic microbial products: Those are soil-focused. Regen-A-Root works across hydro, coco, and soil systems equally.
-
Cost efficiency: At just 1ml per litre, Regen-A-Root is one of the most cost-effective root boosters on the market. A little goes a very long way.
Usage guidance
Regen-A-Root is designed to be simple. Add it to your nutrient solution at every feed and every top-up, from propagation through to final flush.
Cloning and propagation
Add 1ml per litre to your cloning solution or rooting medium water. Strengthens cuttings and accelerates root emergence without forcing growth.
Early vegetative stage
Mix 1ml per litre into your full nutrient solution at every reservoir change and top-up. Builds a strong root foundation for vigorous canopy development.
Late vegetative and transition
Keep dosing at 1ml per litre. Root systems continue branching and thickening, which directly improves nutrient uptake as nutrient demand increases.
Flowering stage
Continue at 1ml per litre throughout flowering. This is where Regen-A-Root stands out — most root products stop working here, but this one keeps building root mass right through bloom. Better roots mean better nutrient transport when your plants need it most.
System compatibility
Works in DWC, aeroponics, NFT, flood and drain, drip irrigation, coco, soil, and any other growing method. Won't clog lines, cause biofilm, or disrupt water flow. pH-neutral and compatible with any nutrient line.

Who this is for
- Hydroponic growers after consistent root development without synthetic hormones
- Anyone running DWC, aeroponics, NFT, or other system-dependent setups where root health directly affects yield
- Growers concerned about hormone-based products suppressing top growth or unbalancing nutrient uptake
- Commercial operations where cost-per-application matters and efficiency is non-negotiable
- Propagators and cutting specialists wanting safer, easier rooting without gel contamination or powder mess
- Growers looking to improve flowering-stage nutrient transport and root vitality through final weeks
Our take
Regen-A-Root does exactly what a root stimulator should do — build healthy, vigorous root systems — without the compromise of synthetic hormones. The fact it works all the way through flowering puts it ahead of most competitors. At 1ml per litre, it's efficient enough to make sense on any scale, from small bedroom setups to full commercial rooms.
If you're running hydro or high-performance systems and want better roots without the hormone baggage, this is a solid choice. Cost-effective, proven track record, and it'll improve nutrient uptake across the entire growing cycle. Worth picking up while stock lasts.
