Description: Terra-Sorb hydrogel is a long-lasting, easy to use, water absorbing crystal used as a soil amendment. In addition to helping conserve moisture, it can help prevent some nutrients from leaching out of your soil. Use it with hostas, astilbes, ferns, and other moisture loving perennials, or add it to your vegetable garden, raised beds, window boxes, and hanging baskets. By adding hydrogel, you will often increase the growth rate or decrease the watering frequency. In undisturbed conditions it lasts 8 - 10 years in the soil but lasts 3 - 4 years under normal gardening conditions.
Instructions: For best results, add 1 teaspoon to 2 cups of water, or 3 tablespoons to a gallon of water and wait for it to hydrate. Then add 2 or 3 handfuls of gel to the planting hole and mix with your amended soil. When using dry, be careful not to overdose which can create spongy soil conditions. A little goes a long way! Hydrogel should always be worked into the soil and not topdressed as it will break down in sunlight.
