Real NAA is a powder that must first be dissolved
before it can be diluted.
Please note that NAA in a liquid solution breaks down very quickly; it generally will be only good for a few weeks at best.
Using the 1/32 spoon that is included with every order (filled up to the top but not higher
it holds about 0.045 grams) we placed 1 spoonful in each of several containers and tested
dissolving it with different liquids.
Water
NAA will not dissolve in water.
Alcohol
NAA will dissolve in different types of alcohols, and we tested the following.
Isopropyl Alcohol (Rubbing Alcohol)
Isopropyl alcohol is rubbing alcohol; we dissolved the 0.045 gram spoon content in
1/2 teaspoon 70% alcohol.
Methanol - Methyl Hydrate
1/2 teaspoon of methanol also dissolved the 0.045 grams of NAA. We used 99.9% methanol but I would
be sure that lower purity would be successful.
Ammonia
Using clear ammonia we dissolved the 0.045 grams with 1/2 teaspoon of clear ammonia.
We also were able to dissolve it with a solution of 1/2 teaspoon of clear ammonia and 1/2 teaspoon
of water. Best to use the weaker ammonia mix with water.
As far as the effect that ammonia has on plants keep in mind that ammonia is
also a fertilizer. Just make sure that the ammonia does not contain other stuff.
Also, the ammonia evaporates quite quickly.
Please read the FAQ and select the PPM that seems the best for you type of plant and the type of results you
want. It may be smart to start at an even lower PPM and over time, depending on results, you can raise or lower
the PPM.

Commercial Mixes These products represent samples mixes that you can use.
In an experiment 1 on date palms the effects of IAA,IBA and NAA was tested. The notable conclusion of the experiment was that on these existing roots NAA 50 PPM and 100 PPM promoted growth while IBA slowed it down.
At room temperature NAA is stable for three years from date of manufacturing.
