Directions. . .
Add dry crystal granules to approximately five cups of water and
leave
it to swell for about four hours, or overnight.
During
this time the granules absorb the water and increase their
weight
by about 400 times. The softer the water the more the gel
swells.
Next, use a sieve to strain off the surplus water and allow the
gelatinous
mass to dry for at least two hours.
This helps to avoid a build-up of water in the bottom of the
dish
or container.
Now put the gel into a container or watering
dish.
If you are adding nutrients, calcium, vitamins, etc.
always add
these items to the water prior to adding the dry
crystal granules.
After allowing time for the granules to fully absorb the
water,
pour off or remove any excess (non absorbed) water.
Removing the non-absorbed water will help prevent drowning.
To
dispose of used crystals, pour crystals into flower beds or
garden.
WaterGel is a non-toxic substance that will not harm
