What's your all time favorite? If you like a combination, please post that and why you use the combo. Is it powder, liquid or gel? What's your success rate usually like? What kinds of things do you root?

I'll start!
I don't have one right now. I'm trying to find a gel with fungicide. Do you think Dip 'N Grow [HYPERLINK@www.wormsway.com] sounds decent? It's liquid, fungicide and antibacterial. I really want something for dipping. I don't like having to water the hormone in to the cutting medium.

I used to use a Canadian brand named Wilson's and it was great! Except it's tiny and pricey.

I usually *try* rooting hardwood cuttings but have more success with soft wood cuttings.

If anyone uses Dip 'N Grow, do you still go ahead and use it to root consumable crops even though it says not to? I want to try rooting berry and fruit plants so it'll be a while before there's crops, do you think it'll be okay?
