Powdered rooting hormone does not dissolve well in water but dissolves easily in alcohol. Could possibly make you own rooting hormone solution for a cloning setup to promote root growth. To boot you could mix a few drinks with it also to have some fun while making it.

Here is a study I found that shows ethanol used in conjunction with IBA then diluted with water (eg. of rooting powder https://www.homedepot.com/p/Bonide-Rooting-Powder-925/202251696 which is IBA)

Take a look at the result on page 281.

This is my oil. Rosin. Pure. No solvents. And, it took me all of 45 minutes to press out this mess, about 5 grams. It's very golden but looks dark when in its silicon container. I don't understand what all you guys are waiting for..... make the switch.
