## Description

Miracle-Gro Water Storing Crystals, 12oz : desertcart.ae: Home

Review: As an avid gardener who wholeheartedly relies on Miracle-Gro products for my gardening needs, I am thrilled to share my enthusiastic endorsement of Miracle-Gro Water Storing Crystals. This exceptional product has become an indispensable tool in my gardening arsenal, allowing me to optimize water usage and promote healthy plant growth. The Water Storing Crystals are truly a game-changer when it comes to water management in the garden. These tiny crystals have the remarkable ability to absorb and retain large amounts of water, creating a reservoir that plants can tap into during periods of drought or when regular watering is not feasible. This unique feature not only ensures the survival of my plants during water scarcity but also minimizes the time and effort required for watering. One of the aspects I admire most about Miracle-Gro is their dedication to research and development. This commitment is evident in the effectiveness of the Water Storing Crystals. When added to the soil, these crystals slowly release the stored water to plant roots, providing a consistent moisture supply that supports optimal growth. The crystals gradually rehydrate as they come into contact with water, ready to store and release moisture as needed. This continuous cycle of water absorption and release helps to establish healthier root systems and reduce water stress, resulting in stronger, more resilient plants. I have found the Water Storing Crystals to be incredibly versatile, accommodating various gardening needs. Whether I'm nurturing delicate indoor plants, tending to my vibrant outdoor flower beds, or cultivating a thriving vegetable garden, the Water Storing Crystals adapt seamlessly to any setting. Their ease of use and compatibility with different soil types make them an essential component in my gardening routine.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is it safe to use with insects?**
A: I am an industrial chemist (retired) and worked at a complex with a plant making 350,000 pounds of acrylamide (monomer) a day.  While acrylamide itself is quite toxic and carcinogenic. polyacrylamide is utterly harmless.  Polyacrylamide is, as the name suggests, a polymer of acrylamide.  The polymerization reaction destroys the toxicity and carcinogenicity of the molecule.  As long as all of the monomer is removed, there are no worries.  If you are a bit OCD, you can put the "crystals" in a large excess of water, let it sit for a few hours, and pour off the water.

**Q: can it be used in outdoor pots that already have plants in them**
A: Yes, you can use this in pots with plants in them.  Make several holes in the soil (with a stick or pencil) evenly spaced around the plant (avoiding the root area) and incorporate Miracle-Gro Water Storing Crystals evenly into the holes. Cover the holes with soil and water thoroughly to activate the water storing properties.

**Q: I want to add this product to all my landscaping during our CA drought.  Can I sprinkle it over all my plants or do I have to dig up my entire garden?**
A: No you can't sprinkle it on the ground.  But you don't have to dig up your garden either.  What you can do is dig some holes or area around each plant, getting as close as you can without damaging the plant roots.  I usually do this for an established garden areas.  I make the holes (3 for each plant) or digging areas close to plants as I can then put about 1/4 to 1/2 tsp. Then replace the dirt. After I've finished I water a bit to soak the dirt back into place.If you want to see what the Crystals look like when wet. Put about 1/4 tsp in a 2c measuring cup add about 1/2 of water.  They get huge!  Then you can just put this in the ground or planter with a plant.Hope this helps

**Q: Does anyone know how long this stuff lasts in the soil? One season, 5 seasons?**
A: According to literature it gradually deteriorates over a 2 to 3 year period turning into a harmless soil additive with a few nutrients.
