Hydretain® ES Plus is a patented, fully organic and biodegradable blend of liquid humectant and hygroscopic compounds that attract and hold moisture like tiny water magnets within soil.

Hydretain® Extra Strength Root Zone Moisture Manager also features an advanced environmentally sound surfactant for improved soil penetration.

Hydretain® ES Plus manages available soil moisture, extending watering intervals of indoor and outdoor plants, flowers, vegetables, shrubs, trees and grasses by as much as 2 to 3 times. Each application reduces watering for up to 3 months!


WORKS GREAT WITH ANY TREEGATOR® BAG:

Add 4 ounces of Hydretain® ES Plus for every 1" of tree caliper (trunk diameter) to your Treegator® Original or Treegator® Jr. Pro Slow Release Watering Bag – then simply fill with water per Treegator® directions.

Hydretain® ES Plus will reduce your Treegator® watering frequency by up to 50%! One application of Hydretain® ES Plus lasts for up to 3 months, and in most cases, you'll only have to fill your Treegator® Bag once every 10 to 14 days during that time! That's an average of just 6 fills of a Treegator® Bag over 90 days!


HOW TO APPLY HYDRETAIN® ES PLUS:

Simply apply Hydretain® ES plus by attaching the nozzle sprayer to a hose – it’s that easy. After you apply Hydretain® ES Plus, rinse it off the foliage and into the soil, then within 24 hours, water heavily enough to carry Hydretain® ES Plus down to and throughout the root zone. This allows Hydretain® ES Plus to attach to your roots and begin to manage your moisture and keep your plants and turf alive and healthy.

Hydretain® ES Plus works great on these applications:
  • Lawns / Turf:
    Soil should be wet to moist (but not saturated) before applying Hydretain® ES Plus. Water thoroughly the night before or a few hours before applying. Immediately after applying, water thoroughly, rinsing Hydretain down into the root zone, where it is designed to function. (Approximately 1/2 inch of water is needed.)
  • Trees, Shrubs and Individual Plants:
    Add 4 ounces of Hydretain® ES Plus to any Treegator® Bag. Fill Bag with water and let empty. Hydretain® ES Plus can be applied once every 3 months.
  • Large Planters, Flowers and Vegetable Gardens: Apply Hydretain® ES Plus around plant root zone at a rate of 1 quart of concentrate per 1,000 square feet.
  • Potted or Containerized Plants:
    Apply enough Hydretain® ES Plus to thoroughly saturate the soil throughout the pot or container.
