Frost Protector for Ornamental, Fruit and Vegetable Plants
It’s like anti-freeze, for your plants.
A scientific-breakthrough – this non-toxic spray actually improves plants’ natural cold tolerance up to 9.4 degrees Fahrenheit, depending on the variety of plant. Developed by botanists, FreezePruf™ protects the plant externally and systemically (throughout the plant) by enhancing both its natural “anti-freeze” like properties and its ability to survive ice crystal damage.
It’s like moving your temperature zone 200 miles south!
FreezePruf’s easy-to-use, biodegradable formulation and mode of action add a half-USDA Zone equivalent or more to the cold tolerance range of all major ornamentals and crops. So, a plant that is hardy to the low-to-mid teens Fahrenheit (Zone 8a) can be grown with little or no damage in Zone 7b.
Plant earlier, harvest later
You can play the guessing game as to when the last Spring-, or the first Fall-frost will occur and arm yourself with everything from smudge pots to blankets to protect your plants, often with poor results.
Or, you can stop guessing! Apply FreezePruf at any temperature above freezing, but for best results, apply when the temperature is above 50˚F and a minimum of 8 to 12 hours before an anticipated freeze. FreezePruf may also be applied seasonally, in anticipation of future cold events within the upcoming 4 to 6 weeks. Since Freeze Pruf extends the growing season, it’s perfect for perennials as well as fruit and vegetable plants. The guaranteed protection lasts up to 6 weeks.
Easy-to-use
Simply spray liberally to the entire plant. The biodegradable formula is designed to resist washing away by rain or snow and one application lasts up to six weeks. For added protection, reapply as new growth appears.
Protects foliage and flowers
FreezePruf is a water-based, eco-safe spray that enhances the plant’s natural mechanisms to resist freeze damage, shielding it from ice crystal damage, and increasing its ability to survive cold temperatures by reducing the freezing point of water inside the tissues of the plant.
Frequently asked questions about FreezePruf
- Does it really work?
Freeze Pruf has the unique ability to reduce both the freezing point of water inside plant tissues and ice crystal damage when ice does form, thus enhancing a plant’s natural ability to survive cold temperatures,” says Dr. David Francko, a botanist at the University of Alabama and lead developer of Freeze Pruf. “Plants can be frozen solid and still be viable.”
- How do I apply FreezePruf?
It may be applied at any temperature above freezing and will produce significant benefits as soon as plant surfaces dry. Spray liberally to entire plant. For best results, apply when the temperature is above 50˚F and a minimum of 8 to 12 hours before an anticipated freeze. FreezePruf may also be applied seasonally, in anticipation of future cold events within the upcoming 4 to 6 weeks.
- How often do I have to apply the spray?
Protection will last up to 6 weeks. For added protection, reapply as new growth appears.
- Is it safe for kids and pets?
Yes, it’s an eco-safe, biodegradable product. When used as directed, it will cause no harm to humans, animals or the environment.
- Will it harm my plants?
Absolutely not.
