Cutting Water by 50%
Additional Information
Moisture Manager has the unique ability to attract water molecules, create droplets, and then release those droplets to plant roots, helping them to absorb more moisture and nutrients to stay healthy. One end of the Hydretain molecule anchors itself to soil particles and root hairs, coating their surface. The other end is available to grab free water molecules from humid air circulating in the soil. Once Hydretain has grabbed enough water molecules to create a droplet, the plant’s root are able to absorb the droplet through osmosis preventing it from being lost to evaporation or gravity.

When water is applied through rainfall or irrigation, a huge percentage is never utilized by the plant. This is primarily due to the forces of gravity pulling moisture back to the aquifer and evaporation pulling moisture into the atmosphere. While we can do little about gravity, we can reduce evaporative loss.
As soils dry down, water is depleted, leaving only moisture vapor behind. Just as we can’t drink humidity out of the air around us, plants cannot use moisture vapor.
Hydretain was engineered to attract the vapor and collect it back into microscopic liquid droplets to sustain turf and plants between waterings.
