Terra-Sorb Crystals
Drought-Proof Crystals Protect Plants for 5 Years
Commercial landscapers rely on Terra-Sorb to protect plants in heat-stressed, drought-prone situations such as city parks and traffic medians. These non-toxic crystals absorb up to 200 times their weight in water, then release it gradually as plants need it. And because it contains potassium-based polymers instead of sodium-based, it breaks down into fertilizer instead of soil-damaging salts. Protect valuable landscape plants the way that pros do
Also highly effective for container-grown plants
Works for five years!
Breaks down into fertilizer, not salt
What Our Customers Say
"Terra-Sorb is kind to the soil and goes twice as far as similar sodium-based products. It is also less expensive, even considering postage and handling."

Comments about Terra-Sorb:
I have been using this myself for years, but I tend gardens for others who do their own planting, so I purchased Terra-Sorb for them to use when they plant. My job is made easier and my clients think I'm a genius.

Comments about Terra-Sorb:
I tried this product on my outside flower pots that are under my carport. I am very happy with the results. I didn't have to deep water every other day on my flowers. The product does what it says.........I am now able to water the plants every week...if not sufficient rainfall. I also have a water meter that I consult weekly for all my plants. Next spring, I can't wait to use this product on my fern beds and flower garden under the trees.......the trees steal any moisture they get their roots onto. Great Product.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Comments about Terra-Sorb:
I tried this product in my planters. The plants thrived so much so that I only water the planters once a week (or not at all with sufficient rainfall). I will now incorporate this product into my flower beds that lack sufficient water (under trees that take water away from my shade loving plants). I strongly recommend this product to everyone. Your plants will thank you for it.

Comments about Terra-Sorb:
I use Terra-sorb when I plant outdoor plants. It allows me to water less frequently and helps new transplants survive. I've also used it in all my hanging pots & on indoor plants that require moist soil. Great product!
