Water Absorbing Granules and Mats for Planters
Granules, Prepacked Mats and Rolls from England

They hold moisture in the soil of hanging baskets and containers, so plants do not dry out as quickly, improving displays and growth even in dry conditions.
Adds Potassium - Not Sodium

Another advantage of Rain-Gel and Rain-Mats is that they slowly release small traces of potassium, unlike other products that release sodium (salt) which can adversely affect some plants.

Place these mats down in the growing medium at root level as you plant each basket, hayrack or planter. These mats soak up water as rapidly as Rain-Gel (granules)but provide a stable reservoir which the roots will actually grow into. Prepackaged Rain-Mats are designed to take the guesswork out of how much material to use. They fit nicely into standard size hanging baskets. They can reduce the need for watering as often.

Finally help in keeping my Hayrack from drying out

My old hayrack system finally needed complete refilling. Nobody carried the exact size for the new liner except Kinsman. I had the benefit of being able to also add the rain mats and the terrracotta hydrowine watering tubes as I made completely new plantings. Finally I have a way to keep my plantings watered while I am away.

There are 2 very good things about these mats: 1) they catch the water so it doesn't run out and 2) they keep the soil moist

I use these mats for their water retention in my 30" hayrack planter. The vines I plant in that planter use quite a bit of water after growing for an entire season, and I always have lush, long, and full vines all season.

Great product

I won't plant my window boxes or pots until I have these to put into them...they save me a lot of time, effort and water.

I've been using rain matting for many years and usually had to buy it by the expensive roll. Then I had to cut them to fit the particular planter. I have found that the pre-cut squares are much handlier and the rain mats are a must for planters, in particular hanging baskets. They absorb water that would normally just pour through the planter.

Useful product

I've used rain mats for a few years. They work well as they help retain the moisture. I water less and my container plants do better. I have purchased both the pre-cut mats and the roll to cut my own.

I not only use in the hanging baskets put also in my clay pots which have a tendency to dry out quickly in heat. This product helps to maintain the moisture in the soil/roots preventing the water from running thru. A product I just won't plant without!
