Hydr8 MRG™ (Moisture Retaining Granular): Whether you're kick-starting nutrient mineralization in the spring, preparing turf for fall dormancy, or alleviating stress during challenging summer periods, Hydr8 MRG is a great choice for moisture management and retention in all soil types. It's also great for encouraging vigor in and around thin spots and as a seed top dressing! Covers 2,500 sq ft (10 lb) - OR - covers 10,000 sq ft (40 lb) BlackOut compliant (Florida)Re-wets itself over multiple irrigations up to 45-60 days.Reduces surface tension of irrigation water and attaches to hydrophobic soil colloids, driving water into hard-to-wet soil profile.Reduces pooling and runoff, which means more water enters the root zone to be available for plants.A Note from Allyn Hane, aka The Lawn Care Nut: I know many of you are going to ask me if this product works and how it compares to Hydretain. I don’t know on this one yet. It looks awesome, though; read the label. Take some time and learn like I just did. I had fun searching for words like “soil colloid” and remembered that my nickname in my junior year of college was “hard to wet.” Kidding aside, there is some terminology that I don’t understand.  I’ll get with John, and we will do a podcast and talk about it to get more info.I can tell you this much: I’m excited to throw it down and see what it does myself! That’s because I’ve been working with John Perry for six years now, and I’ve always trusted his bio-stimulants and fertilizers in my programs. Our lawns look great with a foundation of John’s Humic, Fulvic and Kelp washed down with a healthy dose of Air8. This product is different - it’s obviously a granular but it’s also a moisture managing type product. So it’s something new from them and their pro applicators have already been all over it. How does it compare to the granular Hydretain? I’m not sure, as I have not used it yet, but I do know that both are blackout-compliant in Florida. Some of you who like to mess around with new stuff should pick up a bag and test it out. Have fun with it! The rate is 4lbs/1,000, but troubled areas can be “painted black” with 10lbs/1,000. Lastly - I’ll be spreading some of this in my lawn too! We just don’t have it in stock yet - it’s that fresh, literally being made now. So once we get it in stock and I can get a bag I’ll make some content on it and we will put it in some potted plants along with the liquid version and have fun with all of it.Product Description from Greene County (N-Ext):Moisture Retaining Granular is a soil surfactant/wetting agent engineered to enrich soil biology, capture and distribute water more evenly, enhance nutrient absorption, optimize soil structure, and promote the well-being of plants.
