Captures water and nutrients so your plants thrive - even in drought conditions!
What is Hydrosource CLP?
Safety
Hydrosource is harmless to your family and pets. OSHA, the USDA and
numerous university studies have determined Hydrosource to be
non-hazardous. It benefits the environment by holding nutrients in the
soil preventing them from contaminating groundwater and waterways!
Slippery when wet!
Storage
Keep dry and out of direct sunlight.
Usage
Mix Hydrosource dry or hydrated in the top 6-8 inches of soil.
Pre-hydrated is the preferred method for containers and pots or
individual plantings such as shrubs and trees. The crystals are first
hydrated which prevents the displacement of plantings or changes in
grade as the crystals expand with water. Hydrosource is used dry, mixed
or tilled directly into soil for large applications such as lawns and
fields. Remember to consider expansion.
Directions
See the Application Chart and find your intended use. Choose the
appropriate grind size,. In general, salty soils reduce water holding
capacity and require more Hydrosource and higher percolation rates
require smaller grind sizes to insure full hydration. Full directions
are inside the package.
Measurements
One 5 oz. bag makes about 3.5 gallons (0.45 cu. ft.) of hydrated gel.
Hydrosource CLP™ is a gel-forming super absorbent
crosslinked polyarcylamide that gathers hundreds of times its weight in
water and stores nutrients. Mixed with soil, it provides a reservoir of
water and nutrients for your plants and lasts up to 20 years! This
means you use less water and fertilizers. Due to a constant supply of
water and nutrients, Hydrosource grows bigger, healthier and faster
maturing plants with more flowers and produce.
Up to 3-5 times the yield with
one third of the water!
One dry crystal (right) absorbs hundreds
of times its own weight in water to
produce a gel chunk (left).
Only a small amount of water and nutrients are absorbed by the roots while the rest washes away.
Water and nutrients are absorbed by the roots and by
the hydrosource crystals which stores them and releases them gradually
to provide continuous nourishment.
Uses
For lawns, gardens, potted plants and field crops. Additional uses
include hydrogarments, hot and cold packs, floral arrangements and many
more! See www.hydrosource.com for ideas and more information.
