CRYSTAL SOIL is a superior water absorbing co-polymer, with a proven lifespan of at least up to 9 years with the capability to absorb and release up to 400 times its weight in water.Because of the waterstorage capacity, when used correctly,
CRYSTAL SOIL can reduce frequent watering. It promotes faster seed germination by holding water and nutrients near the roots, enhances stronger root growth by releasing water and nutrients during stress periods, thus resulting in a more efficient use of water by improving soil conditions for healthier and stronger plants CRYSTAL SOIL is non-toxic.
CRYSTAL SOIL is odorless. However, an excess of water over a period of time may cause an odor to develop. If this occurs, simply drain off excess water and rinse crystals with tap water. If crystals becomes soiled, rinse with tap water and drain for 2-3 hours. After 4-6 weeks, if your plant looks like it needs plant food, mix plant food according to a manufacturer
ADDITIONAL DIRECTIONS :
1. Rinse roots clean of potting material. Trim off long stringy dirty roots.
2. Gently insert plant or cutting into crystals.
3. As evaporation occurs, add water to just below original level to allow for swelling.
HELPFUL HINTS :
Water approximately every 3-4 weeks (or whenever the crystals shrink about an inch). As the crystals shrink, add fresh distilled water to bring CRYSTAL SOIl back to original size. If all the water has not been absorbed by CRYSTAL SOIL after 2 hours, it has been over-watered. Pour out excess water. For best results, spray leaves once a month.
CRYSTAL SOIL can be used on most green, water-loving tropical house plants without the use of potting soil. CRYSTAL SOIL can be mixed in the soil for all hanging plants, trees, outdoor plants, flower bearing plants, fruit bearing plants, plants with color, and plants with pots larger than 6".
What is CRYSTAL SOIL?
- Small, clear, hard crystals, made of a water-absorbing polymer
- Become soft as water is absorbed and retains water
- Provide reserve water for plants, stored in hydrated crystals
- The additional water stored in crystals is 95% available for plants to use
- Considered non-hazardous. Use good sanitation practices (wash hands after use)
- Store away from children, food, animals |
