Did a search and found this at Wikipedia: Polyacrylamide is an acrylate polymer formed from acrylamide subunits that is readily cross-linked. Acrylamide needs to be handled using Good Laboratory Practices (GLP) to avoid poisoning since it is a neurotoxin. Polyacrylamide is not toxic, but un-polymerized acrylamide can be present in the polymerized acrylamide. Therefore it is recommended to handle it with caution.


Hmmm.....

Whats the brand name of the product you are using?
doco Reviewed by doco on . 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 Rating: 5
