DRiWATER® provides an irrigation solution unlike any other available in today's market in that the water is prepackaged for use on a plant-by-plant basis. DRiWATER works in conjunction with the natural environment of soils to release water directly to the location where it is placed. When the gel comes in contact with naturally occurring enzymes in the soil, the enzymes break down DRiWATER's binding ingredient, vegetable gum, and the gel converts back to liquid at a consistent rate.


The capillary action in the soil causes the water to form a moisture pocket around the root zone extending no further away than one foot. This ensures that 100% of the water from DRiWATER is available to the plant and not lost to leaching, runoff or evaporation.
