PlantBest Introduces A Breakthrough New Gardening Product to Dramatically Reduce Waterings

January 26, 2006 (PRLEAP.COM) Lifestyle News
TORONTO, CANADA – PlantBest, Inc. is happy to introduce SoilSponge™, the all-natural soil supplement that adds up to 7 days between watering!

Busy people spend less time watering their plants when SoilSponge™ is added to the soil. Made of 100% natural ingredients, SoilSponge™ absorbs water like thousands of tiny sponges. As the soil dries out, SoilSponge™ releases just the right amount of moisture to the plants, as they need it. Indoors or outdoors, SoilSponge™ is perfect for container plantings, repotting houseplants, in vegetable and flowerbeds and for lawn repair and seeding.

Plants, People and the Environment Benefit from SoilSponge™
· If you tend to forget to water your plants or are away for a few days, SoilSponge™ acts as an insurance policy for them.
· SoilSponge™ is perfect for everything you grow including moisture loving plants like roses and tomatoes.
· Soil that is conditioned with SoilSponge™ retains more moisture, releasing it when it’s needed, thus retaining important nutrients longer to encourage more vigorous growth.
· Eco-friendly SoilSponge™ is kind to the environment. SoilSponge™ is safe to use around children and pets.
· SoilSponge™’s natural brown color does not rub off or stain hands or clothing.

Recent Research Findings
Rodger Tschanz of the University of Guelph’s Department of Agriculture (Canada’s leading horticultural institution), concludes. “Our tests with a wide range of potting soils showed that SoilSponge™ resulted not only in less watering, but also a clear opportunity to delay the need for watering. We would expect in the home environment, the user would see an increase of some 7 to 10 days between waterings, depending on conditions”.

SoilSponge™ is now available throughout the United States in independent garden centers, selected major regional retailers (like Menards and Hy-Vee) and online via www.plantbest.com.
