JCD-05SM 8 oz Hydrogel Granules

They work very well to absorb and release water. I use them every summer for potted and in the ground plants.

Excellent water retention. Just be sure to use by putting it LOW in the pot or container. If you sprinkle on top, it won't do the job. The fertilizer feeds well and slowly. I have never had such good results!

I have used this for years. Saves my plants over the winter, I always forget to water them.

Bought these to use in conjunction with Aqua Cones in an effort to supply more consistent watering in garden. Crystals work fine, but found that you must let them soak in bottle you use at least 24 hours as they expand much more than you originally think they will. Also, should you put too many crystals in bottle, and they fall out of bottle when you remove the cone to add more water, they are history. Despite washing them off, they formed a nasty green mold when I tried to reuse them.

These save my potted plants between watering. It retains moisture in hot conditions.

Put this as directed in all my outdoor pots this year and with the 80-90 degree weather has helped keep my plant looking healthy love it

I used it like the directions said. I have never used it before, so I am not sure if it worked like it was supposed to. I do have larger plants. But you need to take in account that it rained a lot here. So it is hard to say.. which is why I gave it a 3.. 50/50 I will def use it again.

I have to water less and my flowers are thriving!!
