Really Awesome Idea. I never knew about his superb watering hack. I always dry out my plants when i go on vacation because i have no one to take care of them.
I was going to use this in a raised bed but notice that sap turns into neurotoxins after about 5 years. This means that my raised bed would become dangerous to plants! I think I will keep this just for pot plants that are replaced annually. Once again, great info! Thanks, Dr. Regards, Bob (U.K.).
They’re also called “water crystals”. I soak them first and then mix them in with my potting soil mixture. Or you can buy bagged potting soil that have “wetting agents”.
I am going to be planting shrubs and trees in a few months and they need to watered every day I hear. Can I use SAP for these to cut down watering time. I enjoy your channel and your opening sequence.
I have the citrus plant also and the branches are a bit loopy/curling down. It's like they have no strength. I had it transplanted to a new pot so I'm thinking it's lacking micro-nutrients. If you have any suggestions that would be great. Keep up the great work with these awesome gardening contents.
Hi, thanks for commenting! It seems like the plant is in transplant shock after repotting. Keep in shady area for a week. Water once with Epsom salt solution like 1 tsp in 1 liter. Checkout my video on leaf curling if u need more help - ruclips.net/video/Rz1Uk9GYrQI/видео.html
Hi nice educational vedio. Is SAP the same one used in baby diapers. Because I had seen one vedio regarding tat long time back , where they had shown how to open up a diaper n remove the crystals n use it on soil
Hi, Dr Saab. You state in one of your replies down the page that saps became neurotoxins after about 5 years and then they are a danger to your plants. If I put saps in a pot of growing tomatoes, how do I then get rid of that soil? If I mix it with compost and nutrients to re-use, will the neurotoxins still appear after 5 years? If so, how do I dispose of soil that has once had saps used in it? I think I need to find an alternative. Regards, Bob (U.K.)
Do u have any vedio on coco peat? Here v get loose ones. I want to know how to use it n how much in pots. It will v helpful if u show us the complete detail on coco peat.
Hello! Just a question. How often should we replace SAP, as it is biodegradable?. I mean, how long last its effect? Does it rehidrated and dehidrated indefinitely? Thank you!
These gels are polyacrylamide based. They change form over about 5 years before turning into acrylamide, a neurotoxin that shouldn’t be anywhere near your garden plants. The change occurs faster if you are fertilizing regular,y.
Dr Sahib Namaskar Actually I am planning to go for Drip irrigation system for my terrace available online. But after re-watching this Vedio, I am with waivering mind. Dr Sahib, after initial applying this SAP, it will be ACTIVE to retain water for how much time(Months/weeks) and we need to water throughly to drain once from pot applied with SAP? MY REGARDS
Hello Sir I live in Delhi and this plant leaves are turning brown at tips . I have kept it in balcony which is covered with green shade. Please advise so that leaves are healthy and type of potting mix, amount of watering.
Hi, yes you can but perhaps more quantity must be added and more deeper depending on size of plant. If your plant is big you need not add this because it will have deeper roots and it can sustain. I got online - all my purchased items are listed at www.gkvk.in with Links. Regards
Hi I have a tree and I don't know the name and it's in my garden but when there is cold and rainy it bend down I don't know why and what should I do to avoid its bending and it's 7 inch currently
Hi, should know it’s name first to know it’s care points. It’s a small plant, if it’s potted you shift it. Honestly Don’t know Wat else to suggest. Regards
Best is drip irrigation. Sir I do not have any store or business. My website just displays articles and links to products I purchased and used. I buy from AMZN- amzn.to/2AaUGTT
Your best solution would be to use collect and use rain water for your potted plants. Distilled water is another option but it can be expensive. Some gardeners use tap water but once a week or so, they flush the plants with distilled water to get rid of the salt buildup. Terracotta pots can help as they wick out salts. Then you can scrub off the salt on the pot and flush with distilled water once a while. Flushing involves a good deep watering so the salts are washed away. You can also buy water desalination units but they are costly.
+ GARDEN TIPS what happens to the plants during rainy season due to its water absorption capabilities ? I need some help regarding my plants which are either dying or not growing. . . How can I share the pics to discuss ... any little Help is much appreciated thank you
Hi, in rainy season it’s not advisable to add SAP. Recommended for summer. Please join our watsapp link by clicking on the link at the end of each video description. You have lot of experts there to answer queries.
One concern is do they allow oxygen to the root zone? Also, you can use fertilizer water and charge those crystals. You can also start seeds in those crystals. FYI: those crystals have been around for decades. They were commonly sold under the brand name Soil Moist.
Dr sahib Namaskar I need one remidi from you. Actually I am feeding my plants whichever I have with nutrition as well twice a month with your U-mix and liquid M cake, spray epsome,apply pesticide ,But I am not getting good results,though getting better,no doubt, now it comes to my mind that I have to water plants with hard ground water from my overhead Tank,the plants also on terrace, Do this Hard water is creating any problem and is there any remidi you can suggest? My soil is also good draining Sandy. Sorry for long write up ,Hard water is disturbing as Vegitable also not doing well.Dr sahib this is Som Tandon ,my phone is damaged,and writing from my Wife's no . My sincere regards
Namaskar Sir 🙏 I got to know about your surgery and phone damage from group. You can increase the dosage sir, and also make it once 15 days. Water unless it’s heavily chlorinated, should not be a problem. Also neem oil or pesticide spray regularly is also important along with feeding. All the best.
@@GardenTips Dr sahib thanks for your quick response. Ok will increase the dosage, pesticides spraying. My sergery is misunderstood,I am fine, just getting eyes waterish while on mobile,so trying to avoid. Thanks for asking. Hope you & family all are enjoying good health. Happy Ramadan to all My regards
Thank you for your valuable suggestion immediately. A small doubt before going on vacation, water the plant fully (pot say 5" inch) & on top of the soil, can I put 2 to 3 absorbed water balls Or With out watering the plant & only put the absorbed water balls on the top of the soil. Which method I should follow for about 10 to 15 days vacation. Before dipping the balls in water, can wash these balls with hydrogen peroxide & then dip it in water so that it doesn't harm the plant Another thing, water balls can be dipped to plain water or water mixed with fungside or Epsom salt or any other fertilizer like NPk,DAP etc.,?
This needs to be inside the soil near roots and that is what I have shown in the video. You can also use wick method with a cotton string or bottle method. Have you watched my gardening hacks video - ruclips.net/video/ILDnpeCELeY/видео.html
Hi, yes dear, I got from amazon - now on sale for 200 only. All links displayed at www.gkvk.in coz amzn links I can’t post directly on RUclips as per youtube terms..
Sir .pls tell me how this ph meter? Online reviews are not good.i know your using this and also a experienced fellow. So pls tell me truth so that i can decide
I am not sure about the biodegradability of this product. The papers you have mentioned do not have convincing information on that particular subject. A casual Google search reveals it is not as biodegradable as we would like it to be.
The SAP for horticultural use is labelled biodegradable and hence used. The one used in diapers is not biodegradable. Now green diapers are also available with biodegradable and thus easily disposable.
GARDEN TIPS thanks for the info. In that case it should degrade in the soil in a relatively short time like 2-3 months. If it does not decompose in the soil in a couple of months, I guess the label is misleading. How often do you need to add more SAP after you put in initially?
