What is keiki paste?

Keiki paste is a plant hormone paste that is used to stimulate the growth of new plant shoots or keikis. It contains cytokinins, which encourage cell division and growth, and auxins, which promote growth and differentiation in plant tissue.

Keiki paste is commonly used on orchids, but it can be used on other plants as well. It is applied to the base of the plant shoot or stem where the keiki or new growth is desired. The paste helps to create a growing point for the new shoot by encouraging the production of plant hormones, which in turn, promote the growth of new cells.

Keiki paste is typically applied in small amounts, and its effects can be observed within a few weeks to a few months, depending on the plant species. It is important to follow the instructions carefully when using keiki paste, as too much can harm the plant.
