Uses of chlormequat chloride
- Chlormequat is an excellent plant growth regulator, which can be used in crops such as wheat, rice, cotton, tobacco, corn and tomato, to inhibit the elongation of crop cells, but not to inhibit cell division, which can make plants shorter and stems shorter.
- The chlormequat chloride can make plant leaves turn green, can make crops resistant to drought and waterlogging, prevent crops from growing excessively,
- resist salinity and alkali, prevent cotton from dropping bolls, and increase potato production.
- CCC is often used in combination with ethephon in floriculture and other horticultural applications to control plant shape, size and flowering.
