    FAQ

    How does Yates Drought Shield RTU 750ml provide plant transpiration protection?

    It forms a thin, flexible polymer film over the leaves that acts as a barrier to reduce water loss through transpiration. This helps plants retain essential moisture during periods of drought, heat, or transplant shock. By limiting moisture loss, it supports plant health and resilience under stress.

    Can I use DroughtShield on all types of plants?

    Yes, DroughtShield is generally safe for use on all plant types, including ornamentals, vegetables, and fruit trees. However, it’s best to test on sensitive species such as ferns before applying to the entire plant. This ensures compatibility and avoids any unexpected sensitivity.

    How often should I reapply for continued protection?

    Reapply every 30 days for ongoing protection, especially during periods of frost, drought, or high heat. Additional applications may be needed as new growth emerges. Consistent use helps maintain the protective barrier and keeps plants safeguarded from moisture stress.

    Protect plants from heat and moisture loss with Yates Drought Shield RTU 750mL – easy spray-on defence for harsh conditions.
