I found it works best as outdoor soil enhancement (but is it micro plastic though?) or for those set-ups in pots that don't require grainy "soil" like your grow media is black-eyed bean sized pebbles or compact clay pellets (it extends water base retention a bit more - I was able to leave my lucky bamboo and spider plant together in a gallon pot to survive the month I was away neglected...with only a fifth of the leaves going yellow) Review: Convenient for the home gardener - We live in a very dry environment where summer temps exceed 100* and there is usually a 15 - 20 kts south breeze every day. Potted plants dry out quickly and need constant watering. Mixed these pellets into the soil before we planted this year and they seem to be helping hold the water. We don't have nearly the volume of water running out the bottom of the pot each time we water. Plants seem to be doing better this spring so far. 5 lb size is more than enough and should last us for several seasons. ## Features - LONG-LASTING WATER LOCK - If you’re looking for a great way to keep your plants hydrated and healthy, these water crystals are the perfect solution.
