“My neighbors lost all
their crops last night,
but my crop was protected”
“The temperature dropped to 23º F last night,
but my crop is safe”
“I didn't lose a minute's sleep last
night
even though the weatherman said there would be frost!”

Statements like these are not normally heard
from those who grow
crops sensitive to freezing cold weather.
Until now.
Nursery & Ornamental Frost-Off Units
Imagine if you could protect recently set young
plants from a freeze:
-
Without having to invest in an equal amount of
backup plants.
-
Without having to use vast amounts of water
that can lead to disease.
-
Without having to invest in expensive crop
covers, that give only a few degrees of
protection.
-
Without having to invest in expensive wind
driven devices.
-
Without having to employ a large labor force.
Imagine being able to protect ripe fruit ready for
harvest from an early frost:
-
Without having to use thousands of gallons of
water, that can do more damage.
-
Without having production losses from applying
and removing crop covers.
-
Without having to watch your investment freeze
on the vine.
Imagine no more. Freeze protection for your plants
is here!

Jack Frost History
In 2003 a major breakthrough in horticultural frost
protection was developed, using a simple concept,
Protect a crop by placing an insulating foam blanket
over it (called a Botanical Insulating Foam).
This technological breakthrough places a blanket of
Insulating Foam over a plant for a specific period
of time. This blanket keeps heat in (heat released
from the ground is trapped around the plant) and
cold out. America Ag. Foam’s patent-pending
formulation creates a foam that quickly sets a
strong protective outer layer (skin) as the
temperature drops. Jack Frost Foam can also withstand the forces of wind up to 12 miles per hour,
with very little surface sheering occurring. Jack
Frost foam has been formulated to protect a crop
against frost or cold damage for 8-24 hours. The
next day Jack Frost Foam breaks down and disappears
with no harmful effects on the crop.
Imagine a product that can give you all of this:
-
Light as a feather on a crop, will not bruise
or break a plant’s branches or stems.
-
Applied quickly when you need it, and can be
removed easily and quickly.
-
Foam blanket is non-toxic and safe to use on
food crops and other plants.
-
Last for 8-24 hours after application.
-
Sets a stronger protective blanket as the
temperature drops.
-
Can give up to 20+ degrees of frost
protection.
-
Starts to breakdown as the temperature rises.
IMAGINE NO LONGER!
Jack Frost Foam can give you all of this and more.
