Commercial Grade Super Absorbent Polymer Potassium Based Water Crystal (5 Pound)

These are wonderful for that pot that always dries out too early, but be caredful. They are tiny crystals that GROW huge!! If on the bottom of a pot, as they grown they displace soil and can Make a mews. If you put them on top they will fill up and roll out of the potting container. Works well but Less is best.

In a hot climate with sandy soils that do not hold nutrients or irrigation water for plant usage, I've been using a range of expanding soil crystals products in my zone 10 garden for the past 5 years. When I saw this one, I was ecstatic as it looked healthier for edibles (potassium based) than the other types of "soil moist" crystals. But as others have commented, having used this one, this product does not last as long as the other brands/versions. When I have created a bucket of crystals (some crystal powder + water) in anticipation of a garden planting day, initially the crystals are well-formed and quite large. But if I do not use them up in that one day & let them sit in the bucket until I'm next able to plant, unlike the other types of products, these seem to lose their crystals and return to being simply water. Manufacturer needs to supply better, trustworthy info about how long they last in gardens: "up to 7 years" means anything from 1 week to 7 yrs. Not good enough when planting shrubs or trees, and seeking a long lasting crystal to help these plants over the hot summers.

It absorbes as advertised. We use it in our camping potty bags. Helps keep the odor down also.

Keep out of reach of children and animals. Works great expands a ton. Owner called to check on my animal ❤️. Hes doing well

The 5 pounds of this great product which I use on all my vegetable garden beds. I strongly recommend it.
