Earthcare Planting Gel delivers a scientifically formulated blend of Seasol and power-fish from semi-hydrated water crystals, directly into the root zone of plants & turf to increase survival rates after transplanting.

Available in: 10kg

**Features and Benefits**

*   Stimulates plant growth
*   Promotes vigorous root development
*   Saves water
*   Maintains root zone moisture for 3-5 years

**How it works**

Planting Gel is a combination of semi-hydrated water storing crystals boosted with Seasol and essential nutrients. They store water and nutrients within the root zone, where the plant needs them most. The added Seasol promotes good root development and improved plant performance. Once placed in the root zone the Gel slowly releases moisture and nutrients, stimulating root growth reducing transplant shock and assisting plant establishment.

With an effective life of up to 5 years in the soil the hydrogel constantly recharges itself, ensuring an ongoing supply of moisture and nutrients on demand to all types of plants & turf.

**How to use it**

Planting Gel can be placed directly into the planting hole or incorporated into the backfill surrounding the root ball; under turf or simply broadcast over the top of the prepared planting surface.
