Pellot 40 is an advanced Plant Growth Regulator (PGR) containing Paclobutrazol 40% SC, designed to regulate excessive vegetative growth and encourage flowering and fruiting. It improves plant architecture by reducing unnecessary shoot growth, allowing the plant to utilize nutrients efficiently. Pellot 40 is widely used in mango and other fruit crops to promote uniform flowering, enhance fruit set, improve fruit quality, and increase overall yield. When applied as recommended, it helps farmers achieve better crop productivity and profitability.

Paclobutrazol 40% SC Dose Per Litre:
Paclobutrazol 40% SC dose per litre varies by crop and application method. For foliar spray, the recommended dose is 0.15 ml/L for red gram. For paddy, the dose is 2–4 ml/L as recommended. Mango application is measured per tree.
Crop | Purpose | Dose / Acre | Per 15 L Pump | Application Method | PHI |
Red Gram | Growth regulation at flowering initiation | 30 ml/acre | 2.25 ml | Foliar Spray | 48 days |
Mango | Flower induction and growth regulation | 8 to 16 ml/tree | Not applicable | Collar/Soil Drench | As per label |
Note: Paclobutrazol 40% SC dose per litre is application-specific and should not be converted between foliar spray and soil or collar drench methods. The registered 40% SC label specifies 75 ml/ha in 500 litres of water for red gram.
How to Use Paclobutrazol 40% SC:
Measure the required Paclobutrazol 40% SC according to the crop and application method.
For foliar spraying, dilute the required quantity in clean water.
For mango, apply Krishigiri Pellot 40 through the recommended collar or soil drench method.
For soil application, place the solution in the recommended furrow around the active root zone.
Apply the prepared solution uniformly.
Do not exceed the recommended quantity.
Avoid spraying during rainy, windy, or very hot, sunny conditions.
Best Time to Apply:
The best application time depends on the crop. For red gram, Paclobutrazol 40% SC is applied at flowering initiation. For mango, Krishigiri Pellot 40 is applied after fruit harvest to influence the following flowering cycle. Paddy application is recommended around the tillering stage.
Frequency of Application and Compatibility:
Use Paclobutrazol 40% SC according to the crop-specific recommendation.
Avoid applying more than the recommended dose.
Do not repeat treatment unnecessarily.
Check compatibility before mixing Krishigiri Pellot 40 with other agricultural inputs.
For mango collar drench, use the product according to the recommended method rather than treating it like a foliar spray.
