Description
Sun Frost applied to leaves before a late frost, for example on fruit crops in bloom, or on vegetable and ornamental crops, increases the plants' ability to withstand frost and the resulting stress.
More generally, during cold periods, even in the absence of frost, it promotes plant metabolism by mitigating the effect of low temperatures.
Arboreal plants improve fruit set and size.
Actinidia and vines improve budding.
Horticultural and aromatic plants reduce growth slowdown.

Instructions for use
Sun Frost is applied exclusively by foliar application before or during a drop in temperature. The product is absorbed quickly and can therefore be applied even just 1 hour before rain, without the risk of it being washed away.
Miscibility
It is not miscible with agrochemicals based on copper, phosphites, sulphur, fosetyl, dodine, organophosphates and oils. For all other active ingredients, miscibility must be verified. We recommend carrying out a preliminary test and contacting the Nuova Flesan technical service.

Leafy vegetables | 2,0 - 4,0 kg/ha | If frost is forecast, apply 3-5 kg/ha (300-500 g/100 l) once or twice before the event. In case of a drop in temperature, even without risk of frost, apply 2-3 kg/ha every 3-7 days. |
Fruit vegetables | 2,0 - 5,0 kg/ha | If frost is forecast, apply 3-5 kg/ha (300-500 g/100 l) once or twice before the event. In case of a drop in temperature, even without risk of frost, apply 2-3 kg/ha every 3-7 days. |
Vineyards | 4,0 - 6,0 kg/ha | 4,0 - 6,0 kg/ha |
Actinidia (Kiwi) | 4,0 - 6,0 kg/ha | 1-3 applications before frost |
Peach, Cherry, Plum, Apricot and stone fruit | 4,0 - 6,0 kg/ha | 1-3 applicazioni prima delle gelate |
Apple, pear and pome fruits | 4,0 - 6,0 kg/ha | 1-3 applications before frost. To reduce the risk of rust, apply 2-3 kg/ha every 7 days from flowering to fruit set. |
