      Trees and Shrubs

        Use the 42K (2K-4K microns) (LARGE) dry polymer crystals.  
        For 1 gallon pot size use 1/4 cup of crystals, 3 gallon pot size use 1/2 cup of crystals, and for a big 15 gallon size
        use 1-1/2  cup of crystals.

        Dig a hole at least three times the size of the container and incorporate polymer crystals throughout the area. 
        After planting, create a dam around the tree or if on a slope leave the top side open to collect water.
        This will provide a water reservoir for easy absorption by the crystals.

    Lawns

      Use the 41K (1K-3K microns) (MEDIUM) dry polymer crystals.
      For application before adding sod, use 3-4 pounds per 1,000 square feet, tilled 1-2 inches deep or 5 pounds
      tilled 4-6 inches deep.   Application can be either by hand or a lawn spreader.  

      Never use more than 5 pounds per 1,000 square, tilled only one inch as prolonged sponginess may occur.

      After the first rain hydrated polymer may appear and the sod may seem loose, however the exposed polymer
      will dissolve and after the roots grow from the sod the looseness will dissipate.

    Vegetables and Beds

      Use the 41K (1K-3K microns) (MEDIUM) dry polymer crystals.
      Use 4 pounds of the dry polymer crystals per 100 square feet at a 4-6 inches of depth cultivation.
      Use less for drier plants and more for moisture loving plants.
      After planting, a good coat of mulch will dress up the bed and cover any loose polymer crystal gel, thus giving
      a finished look and protecting the polymer crystal gel from premature degradation by sunlight.
       

      6 teaspoons of crystals = 1 ounce of dry Polymer Crystals

    1/4 cup of crystals  = 2 oz. of dry Polymer Crystals

    1 teaspoon (medium or large) crystals will absorb approximately 1 cup water

    1 ounce of dry crystals will make a full gallon of WET Gel Crystals

        Agriculture/Lawn & Garden

        41K (1K-3K microns) (MEDIUM) dry polymer crystals is recommended for most horticultural applications.

        Each pound of polymer is about 2 1/4 cups or 110 teaspoons.

        Beneficial to the Environment
           With an essentially neutral pH, WaterGelCrystals super absorbent polymers will break down into nitrogen,
           carbon dioxide and water with no residual toxicity.

        Save on Water and Fertilizer
           WaterGelCrystals will reduce your irrigation needs and frequency in as much as 50% as well as retain your applied
            fertilizers and nutrients for plant use.

        How much water does it store and release?
           Research shows that WaterGelCrystals super absorbent polymers can release up to 95% of the water absorbed and
           make it
           available to the plant.   Remember that 1 pound of WaterGelCrystals can absorb 40 gallons of rain water or 31 gallons
          of tap water.

        Pots/Containerized

                Mix
    41K (1K-3K microns) (MEDIUM) dry polymer crystals thoroughly into media at the following rates:

        Forestry
            Effective reforestation programs depend on high survival rates of trees and shrubs.
            WaterGel Crystals' polymer powders reduces the effects of transplant shock and temporary drought on new
            trees and shrubs, and helps to control leaching and water run-off.

        Bulk Soil
            Use 41K (1K-3K microns) (MEDIUM) dry polymer crystals.   Mix thoroughly into media at a rate of 4 tsp. per cubic foot.

        Landscape & Turf
            Our polymer is especially effective in reducing the stresses on transplanting of plants and grasses. 
            WaterGel Crystals' polymer powders reduces the frequency of watering and fertilization of sod and landscape plants.
