Water is the lifeblood of your plants
Hydrophobic Soil
Soil that is hydrophobic causes water to collect on the soil surface rather than infiltrate into the ground. Hot dry weather generally causes soils to be hydrophobic which increases water surface runoff.
Dryness, plant chemicals, aromatic oils, and other chemicals also cause hydrophobicity. When watering the garden or container plants, we have all witnessed water pooling on the soil surface and evaporating or wastefully running down the side of the pot.

Water Saving Tips
Australia, USA and many other countries regularly struggle with drought conditions. Drought tolerant plants such as cacti and succulents ( aka desert plants ) are becoming increasingly popular. Ask your nursery to hep you pick the ones that suit your local area.
Water your garden or set sprinkler system to come on when the sun is going down to make the most of your garden water. In hot summer days, early morning watering is wasteful due to evaporation. Your water will not get the time to slap down. However, with Use LESS Water™ granules, the water is grabbed and absorbed and rapidly channeled through the soil to the roots.
Our Use LESS Water™ product constantly conditions your soil to enable this efficient moisture penetration. Use mulch around plant bases and on your garden beds. You can apply Use LESS Water™ on mulch as it will find it's way down through the soil directing much needed moisture to your plant's root system.
Try to save as much grey water as possible to manually wet your garden or link to your irrigation system. Always be conscious of water restriction notices and water saving advice from your state or locality.

Use LESS Water™ granular soil amendment
Polymers

Use LESS Water™ is a granular soil amendment - otherwise known as a soil wetter.
As a result of long dry summers and extended periods of drought, soils and potting media can become very dry and water repellent, a condition known as 'Hydrophobic'. This condition is caused when organic matter breaks down in the soil and leaves a waxy coating on the particles of soil. A quality soil wetter is the ideal solution.
Use LESS Water™ is a soil amendment and conditioning agent that breaks down the waxy coating and allows water to penetrate the soil rapidly and evenly, saving up to 50% of normal water usage.
It is non-toxic, biodegradable and safe to use.
