 What is Hydretain® ES Plus?
Hydretain®
ES Plus is a patented, fully organic and biodegradable blend of liquid humectant and hygroscopic compounds that
attract and hold moisture like tiny water magnets within soil. Hydretain® Extra Strength Root Zone Moisture Manager also features an advanced environmentally sound surfactant for improved soil penetration.
Hydretain® ES Plus manages available soil moisture, extending watering intervals
of indoor and outdoor plants, flowers, vegetables, shrubs, trees and
grasses by as much as 2 to 3 times. Each application reduces watering
for up to 3 months.
