Solar Guard works with your crop’s natural processes to reduce water loss, maintain productivity, and improve water use efficiency — even in extreme stress. Forming an ultra-thin, effectively light dispersing layer on the leaf surface allows the light plants need for photosynthesis. This reduces evapotranspiration, and allows the plant to stay active during the hottest parts of the day. Instead of shutting down and wasting water, crops continue turning that water into growth — resulting in more crop from every gallon applied.
Plants are solar-powered systems — but under high UV and temperature, they shut down and lose water rapidly. Solar Guard keeps plants functioning by reducing stress (black body radiation), stabilizing leaf conditions, and improving how efficiently water is used.
Photosynthesis is how plants convert sunlight, water, and CO2 into bio-mass. But this only works efficiently when the plant is not under stress.
Plants shut down to protect themselves, reducing growth. During extreme heat and high UV, chloroplasts limit activity to avoid damage, which slows or pauses photosynthesis and chloroplast avoidance system.
With Solar Guard, crops spend less time shut down and more time growing.
