Broad Area Treatment

Flower Beds, Ornamental Gardens

Two methods available: sprinkle a small amount (1/2 tsp.) of Soil Moist Plus 7-7-7 in the plant hole, plant and cover with soil or apply one and one half pounds per 100 square feet of ground area. Spread the polymer and work into the soil at a depth of three to four inches.

Turf/Sodding

Apply at a rate of nine pounds per 1000 square feet or 400 pounds per acre if worked into the soil at five to six inches. Use six to eight pounds per 1000 square feet (260 to 350 pounds per acre) if worked into the soil at three to four inches. Broadcast the polymer with a spreader or drop seeder for even disbursement. Work into the soil, spread seed or lay sod, roll and soak thoroughly. If applying grass seed, you may want to use our Soil Moist Seed Coat.

Greenhouse

To use as a soil amendment, mix three pounds of Soil Moist Plus 7-7-7 per cubic yard of soil. Make sure the polymer is thoroughly mixed for even disbursement. Best results in mixing are achieved when the polymer is incorporated into the soil in the dry crystal form.

Estimated Coverage

Based on the rate of three pounds of Soil Moist Plus 7-7-7 per cubic yard of soil, the following information can be used as a general guideline. (Please note: Actual pot dimensions may vary from one manufacturer to another and soil volumes will vary depending upon the type of soil used.)

Above estimated coverage does not take into consideration the increase in soil volume when water is absorbed in a potting soil mixture containing Soil Moist Plus 7-7-7. Volume will increase ten to fifteen percent.
