Review: Work as described...BUT...but do pay attention to how you blend it. - Works as intended and is quick to water absorb and hydrate...BUT...spread it really evenly and sparingly because if the concentration per square inch is a bit much in regular soil or sand (I take it was meant to be only a 5-10% soil enhancement) it will start this clumping and hardening like rubber nuggets and worsens it as it hardens around root areas or topsoil and defeats its ability for quick absorption and hydration back into sand-like gel that you find in baby diapers and create drain blocks especially in pots and water becomes gunky. 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: It Really really works! - Really does expand the life of your plants and works, I do suggest you really read directions well and place it near the roots and no on top of the soil! Your plants will thrive on this and it has been soooo hot in Florida. Keeps plants hydrated.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ One of those life hacks
*by J***S on February 16, 2025*

Yes, these water crystals are awesome for plants. However, we use them to water crickets. Allow me to explain. We have a reptile room in our house, and we purchase 1,000 crickets a week. We provide food and water to the crickets so they are nutritious for the reptiles. The cricket water you purchase in stores has dyes, additives, preservatives, etc. This product just gives the crickets fresh water without the extra. A little bit goes a long way, so this jar will last us a good while. It’s also an easy and cost effective way to keep our critters happy and healthy.
