Restrictions on plant protection products (PPPs): PPPs may only be applied to open areas if these are used for agricultural, forestry, or horticultural purposes. For applications on other areas (so-called non-agricultural land such as courtyards, garage driveways, and footpaths) or on paved surfaces, you require an exemption permit from the plant protection service responsible for your area (§ 12 para. 2 of the German Plant Protection Act). Product description: When trees are transplanted, they must adapt to the new site conditions and are under stress. Sun, wind, and rain suddenly strike the trunk from a different direction. It usually takes between 3 and 5 years for the tree trunk to adapt. During this time, "necrosis/sunburn" and "frost cracks" often develop. The trunk is damaged. Pests and fungi penetrate the tree trunk. The tree becomes diseased, grows very poorly, or dies. Fruit growers over 100 years ago were already familiar with this problem and developed a very effective protective method for new plantings, exposed trees, and sensitive deciduous trees using whitewash. However, the problem arose that the protective coating was very quickly removed from the tree trunk by rain, wind, temperature fluctuations, and sun. Frunol Delicia has now used the long-established technology of LacBalsam® wound sealant to develop the LacBalsam® tree trunk protective paint in white. A highly effective protection for the trunks of all deciduous trees. Application: For: Deciduous trees, fruit trees Against: Frost cracks, sunburn, and browsing damage Properties: Up to 5 years of long-term protection against frost cracks and sunburn Elastic, does not hinder tree growth No primer necessary Easy cleaning of the applicator with clean water Mix approximately 20% quartz sand into the LacBalsam® Tree Trunk Protection Paint White for additional protection against browsing damage. Instructions for use: Etisso® LacBalsam® Tree Trunk Protection Paint White is applied undiluted to the trunk of the tree using a brush. The entire trunk should be treated up to the beginning of the crown. For trunks with loose bark or heavy lichen or moss growth, pre-cleaning with a dry brush (medium stiffness) is recommended. Etisso® LacBalsam® Tree Trunk Protection Paint White can be applied year-round, provided the bark is dry. Do not apply in rain or frost, or before frosty nights or periods of frost. Allow 24 hours between application and exposure to rain or frost. Close the bucket tightly after use. It is recommended to clean the brush with water. Application period: year-round.
