PRODUCT INFORMATION
SmartFresh is a unique tool for counteracting many of the undesirable effects of both internal (produced within the plant) and external sources of ethylene on ornamentals, including fresh cut flowers, potted flowers, bedding, nursery and foliage plants. By counteracting ethylene, SmartFresh provides many benefits to ornamentals during transport and storage including:
• Reducing internal ethylene production
• Protection from external sources of ethylene
• Reducing respiration
• Delaying senescence
• Reducing chilling injury
• Reducing premature flower death
• Reducing premature leaf and flower drop and leaf yellowing
SmartFresh is used just prior to harvest, immediately after harvest, just prior to shipment, upon arrival from the supplier, and/or just prior to sale. SmartFresh is effective under both cool (below 55°F, 13°C) and warm (above 55°F, 13°C) temperature conditions.
Ornamentals must be exposed to the volatile active ingredient of SmartFresh TM in enclosed areas, such as storage rooms, greenhouses, coolers, shipping containers, enclosed truck trailers. This product is not intended for use outdoors or in other non-enclosed areas. These enclosed treatment areas must be gas tight as leakage will reduce SmartFresh,s effectiveness.
