Summer 2015 - 117 www.turftrends.com 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. FROM DROUGHT STRESS
