Root watering crystals

Labradors2 · March 18, 2016

Has anyone used Root Watering Crystals in their pots? I know that some of the potting mixes which contain this stuff don't always turn out that well, but I have a large container of them, and could put a few in the bottom of the each pot.

My watering method is usually to bottom-water every day and make sure that the saucers are empty after an hour or so, but I often end up with plants that are overly dry. Of course I only discover this when I go to toss the plants.
