Anti frost candles protect fruit trees from frost

27 April 2021, Saxony-Anhalt, Sülzetal: Countless antifreeze candles burn under already withered apricot trees. In the early morning, the thermometer dropped to temperatures below zero degrees Celsius. For this reason, 359 frost protection candles were set up and lit on the plantation for the second night in a row. The candles warm the ambient air by 3 to 4 degrees Celsius and thus protect the sensitive plants from frost damage.
