Water Crystals Have Many Uses

By using polymer Water Crystals, your plants -- flowers, vegetables, trees, shrubs, lawns and houseplants -- have a better chance of getting over missed waterings and of surviving drought conditions.

But, polymer water crystals have many other uses around the home and in industry.

Water Crystals are popular in hand crafts and home decorating, for festive decorations like floating candles and candle designs. They are regularly used in wedding table designs. They can be easily colored to any spectrum of the rainbow.

They are the material inside hot/cold compresses for muscular/skeletal care, hot and cold packs and evaporative coolers (also known as cool ties, cool wraps, spin and neck coolers) for the head, neck and family pets.

Florists use them to preserve their product in shipping, much the same way that suppliers can ship foodstuffs overnight. Horticulturalists extend the shelf life of their plants by incorporating them in soil. Some potting soils now contain them as a standard ingredient.

Water Crystals are used in a variety of proprietary products in many industries, including humidors, commercially-produced hot/cold packs, drink chillers.

They are even used to feed roaches and crickets by those who raise reptiles. Organizations purchase them for adult and children events at picnics. Some are even packaged comically to be used as a hot soak in bathtubs. (Beware of clogging drains; and be sure to follow supplier instructions!)

They've been used to fight fires and as fire retardants. In small containers, they will absorb water from the bottoms of contaminated fuel tanks. They've been used in feedlots to help clean up unsightly messes and spills. They have been used as emergency water absorbers in floods.

Their main application is to help reduce irrigation in agriculture, home vegetable and flower gardens, house plants, and container gardening. After all, the use of Water Crystals in soils dramatically increases long-term, water holding capacity.

They help nurture plants by contributing to healthy plant life and growth. Every plant and animal needs water. The problem is that organisms require just right amount of moisture for its existenc. These polymers effectively absorb the excess water, alleviating runoff and storing it until needed by plants. In doing so, they reduce plant stress from being in an environment with too much or too little water.

Their use actually improves soil structure as they expand and contract in hydration and dehydration.

As a gardening product and soil amendment, Water Crystals significantly lengthen intervals between watering. This is true for lawns, vegetable and flower gardens, house plants, container gardens, trees, and field crops.

It is a myth (perhaps propagated on the Internet) that the crystals are harmful to plants or take water away from them, replacing the water with harmful chemicals. Instead they capture excess water and store it for plants.

When hydrated, each dry granule turns into a gel, containing the water it absorbs. By squeezing a hydrated crystal, the polymer won't leak moisture. Instead, it will break into smaller crystals or particles that dehydrate to smaller granules.

Super absorbent polymer (SAP) granules, when hydrated, save irrigation costs and help prevent plant stress from dry conditions in throughout the world, in nurseries, sod and turf farms, crop fields, in home gardens and residential lawns.

See how a small investment in this amazing product will help preserve your plants and help care for both indoor and outdoor container plants, improve soil and reduce water bills.

You cannot find a higher quality polymer crystal. Genuine Water Crystals are a quality processed, cross-linked polyacrylamide co-polymer. Despite the long technical name, Water Crystals are environmentally friendly and safe to all animals, pets and plants.
