Gibberellin or Gibberellic acid is non nitrogenous with the mol formula C19H24O5
CytokininB is also known as N6 Benzylaminopurine with the molecular formula C12H11N5 and is nitrogenous in nature.
The trivial name for Indole acetic acid is Auxin with the molecular formula C10H8NO3 and is also a Nitrogenous compound and auxins like the other plant hormones also have different variants of Indole 3 butyric acid , Indole 3 pyruvic acid etc.
