Water Slices
HOLIDAY WATERING FOR HOUSEPLANTS  

These Water Slices are one of the simplest ways of ensuring that your plants have access to sufficient water without their roots being water logged. Supplied dry they can be stored until you need to use them. Then it’s simply a case of placing them in water or liquid feed overnight and they are ready to use. 

     

 Step One
Place a dry Slice into a bowl of water or liquid feed.

 Step Two
Leave the slices in water overnight to soak up loads of water.

Step Three
The Slices are now ready to use.

The polymer structure of the Slices enables them to soak up and store masses of water for weeks. If you allow them to dry out completely at the end of a season, you can then store them away until ready to reuse – so you’ll be able to use them over and over again.

Extremely versatile, these slices can be used to:

  • Keep pot plants watered – ideal for when you’re away, simple place the slice in the bottom of a watertight container, placing the plant pot on top. One slice should be sufficient to provide enough water for a week – you can increase this by adding more and more slices.
  • Use to watering plants in containers or troughs – place wet water slices at the base of the container prior to filling with compost and plants. Every time you water these slices will soak up the water and them slowly release it to the plants – so reducing the number of times you need to water.

 

  • Help retain moist compost in hanging baskets – it’s often difficult to keep plants within hanging baskets watered sufficiently. These slices can be placed in the base of baskets prior to planting – they then act as water reservoirs, storing up water and releasing it over time to your plants.
  • Flower pouches and towers can be kept well watered – by adding Slices into the compost as you plant them up. The slices can be cut into smaller pieces where a complete slice will not fit. 

 

 

No Under or Over Watering When you use Water Slices the chance of plants being under or over watered is greatly reduced. When you water the Slices will soak up loads of water and as the compost dries the Slices will release more water until they dry out. As the water is held within the structure of the Slices, the plant roots won’t become water logged.
