Discover the Hydrocrystal water retainer from Hydropassion. By incorporating Hydrocrystal with your substrate, you'll get much better soil aeration and limit your watering. You'll notice a 30-50% reduction in watering frequency.
It will remain effective in the soil for around two years, helping your plants to establish and grow. With a neutral, non-toxic pH, it is 100% biodegradable.
It absorbs 200 times its dry weight in water, and releases the same amount over time. Its ease of use and compatibility with all types of plants means your soluble fertilizer will spread slowly.
Directions for use
The dose of Hydrocrystal should be adapted to each type of substrate and to the quantity of substrate to be mixed. You'll need to adapt the dose according to the characteristics of the crop, the climate and the conditions of the plant. Preferably, fill your pot 85% with the substrate and Hydrocrystal mix. The remaining 15% will be filled with the swelling of the mixture during watering.
