attracts individual water molecules
from the surrounding environment
and condenses those molecules
into plant usable water droplets.
By making use of water vapor
that would otherwise be lost to
evaporation, Hydretain enables
plants to thrive with up to a fifty
percent reduction in watering
frequency.
Proper water management is
by far the most important factor
in plant health. When plants do
not receive sufficient moisture
from rainfall or irrigation, the
ensuing drought stress can do
more damage than all other
environmental factors combined.
By supplying roots with
microscopic droplets in between
periods of rainfall or irrigation,
Hydretain can help minimize
or even eliminate the effects of
drought stress.
Hydretain should not be mistaken
for a surfactant or superabsorbent
polymer. The Hydretain technology
is unique in its ability to convert
subsurface humidity into plant
usable water droplets. As a liquid,
Hydretain can be applied at any
point in a plant's life. In addition
to reducing overall watering
requirements and helping to
minimize the effects of drought
stress, Hydretain is also beneficial
for seeding and sod establishment.
