Fast recovery of plants affected by freeze after being treated with Terra-Sorb®

Now that winter is approaching, it is important to pay attention to possible damage that could be caused by low temperatures and frost We remind you of the highly beneficial effect of amino acids to help the plant to both resist low temperatures, as well as to recover from frost-caused damage.

As an example, we can show the results obtained this year in Chile in a treatment with Terra-Sorb® of mandarin plants grown in nursery. As can be seen in the photographs, the plants were affected by frost on 18 July (this data roughly corresponds to the month of February of the northern hemisphere). The product was applied the morning immediately after the frost. The photographs were taken on 30 July. It can be observed that plants treated with TERRA-SORB recovered quickly, while the sprouts of plants acting as control samples were still affected, showing necrosis and without apparent recovery.
