The Drought of 2012 has been wreaking havoc on food crops across the country. The physical and financial damage has been well documented, with farmers\u2019 struggles becoming a somber staple on the nightly news.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, farmers are not alone in battling the harsh realities of such an extreme summer. At greenhouses and nurseries nationwide, growers are struggling to keep their potted plants alive and well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The intense summer heat brings with it an array of new stresses that can make growing, sustaining, and transporting these plants a daunting task. As in the food crop market, each dying plant takes a toll on the bottom line.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The use of media surfactants can be a valuable tool for growers facing less than ideal conditions. AquaGro L with PsiMatric Technology<\/a><\/strong> has proven to increase plants\u2019 natural resistance to stress and greatly reduce recovery times for those already affected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We were delighted this week to receive the following testimonial from Jennifer Baston of the Mt. Dora Plant Company<\/a> in Mount Dora, Florida:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“This summer I was having a wilting problem due to the extreme heat and probably a difference in my soil. Even watering daily, I was experiencing wilting of hanging baskets and plants outside on display. Some could not be brought back from the wilt and had to be thrown out for a complete loss. Your rep suggested using AquaGro L on a daily basis when watering. I injected a small amount every time I watered and the soil stayed moist, even in the heat. My loss due to wilting almost vanished. This product works<\/strong>.”<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
