Water gel - Has Anyone else used it???
We tried using this product (polyacrylamide) in our last 2 cycles and found that we had an average increase in weight of 27% (the first we had a 25% better yield and the second we had a 30% better yield). This is the best yield improver that we have found and it's really reasonible. 10 pounds is in the $35-40 range and you use 1 1/2 cups for a 1 1/2cu ft bag
The parameters for the 2 "experiments" were - 2 sets of 40 "kids" in the same room, same potting mix, same size pots, same nutrients with the same lighting and room conditions (height, spacing, airflow).
The biggest secondary benefit was that we only had to water the treated section once every 7 days, verses every other day with the "normal" kids.
This did mean that we had to re-adjust our nutrient and watering schedule as we are using the fox farm schedule and your supposed to just use plain water every other watering. We readjusted this schedule and just fertalized when the schedule dictated.
It's a real nice product, and it's biodegradeable, so I give it 2 thumbs up!!!!:thumbsup: :thumbsup:Lanietheberner Reviewed by Lanietheberner on . Water gel - Has Anyone else used it???
