If water is not properly penetrating your soil, it is likely your soil has become hydrophobic or water repellent. This is an issue that has to be fixed, especially as we come into summer – thankfully, it is an easy problem to solve.

• Simply applying Scotts Everydrop Soil Wetter to your soil will help your garden beds transform. This will increase water absorption by 50%, allowing water to penetrate deep down into the root zone.
• The better hydtrated your soil is, the stronger and deeper the roots will be. This will lead to watering, rainfall and liquid feeding being far more effective for your plants.
• If you want to reduce the amount of water you are using on your garden, as well as cutting down the time you spend watering, you will want to pick up a tub of Everydrop Water Storing Crystals.
• Once applied to your soil or potting mix, these crystals will swell up to hundreds of times their own weight in water, becoming reservoirs of moisture that sit in the soil, releasing water back to the plants when it gets dry. This allows your soil to retain water for longer, thus increasing the time between watering.
