I really love this product. It works really well. It keeps your lawn really heathly. I think you can either apply during rain or shortly before it rains, because it's very enviornmentally friendly. I would definitely recommended this product. It's really worth it!

Not worth the $ as a soil surfactant, unsure as humectant
By Adam on 08/30/2015
I tried this on some heavier clay soil. For the day or two after application, it did make a big difference in water absorption into the soil. By two weeks after application, water was once again flowing on top of the soil rather than being absorbed. As for humectant effects, we've had rain regularly over the last month, so impossible to tell any difference. May test during peak summer stress next year, but at $30 for one application to my whole yard, it is a big "maybe."

Saved New Hilly Lawn
By Gwendolyn on 05/29/2020
After dethatching and reseeding my new lawn was coming in nicely. I had top dressed the flats to protect the bare areas around the individual blades of new grass but on slopes there was no protection. An early heatwave was expected so I got this to keep from having to wet area 10 times a day to prevent drying out of new grass and it was better than I thought....I will finally have grass on my slopes this summer!

Great product

Every summer I'd water my hanging plants until the water spilled out the bottom thinking they were going and soaked. This product real helps by priming the soil to retain water and stops the water from running down the sides of your pots.

Stephanie Foster was wonderful to work with
By Jeffrey on 07/24/2020
My shipment was a mess when i got it...i called top complain about the very expensive Hydretain container had leaked all over the inside of the box. Stephanie didn't miss a step. She asked for photos of the products and i sent them to her. She shouted another bottle for free. I was amazed at how fast and painless the process was. This is why i do belgravia with this site.

Summer Stress Help
By Dewayne on 08/05/2022
It is my second time using Hydretain and both times I got awesome results. This year I neglected my lawn bc of the unusual heatwave in the Midwest. Within the last three weeks I have used stress blend fertilizer by YardMastery and Hydretain. My lawn has recovered tremendously and is one of the greenest in the neighborhood.

Hydretain RTS
By Ann on 06/12/2020
Haven't had long enough to see how this works. My review is for the excellent service I received. I sent pictures and message when order arrived that showed how product had leaked during shipping. They responded quickly and sent a replacement order within just a few days.

Hydraretain RTS
By Patrick on 07/08/2022
Works as advertised
By Jim on 07/29/2022
I applied Hydretain as directed to my lawn and i'm very happy with the results. Mid July through August are very hot months in southeastern Michigan and since I applied the product, I am able to reduce watering days by 50% while maintaining a green, healthy looking lawn. Since I am on city water, and there is a sewer cost associated with every gallon of water used, I am saving a lot of money.
Great Looking Lawn in Oklahoma
By Michael on 08/12/2022
I was a little skeptical of the product but after watching other videos of landscapers that have used it, though not in Oklahoma, I thought I'd give it a try. In Oklahoma this summer we have had temps over 100+ daily and this puts a strain on the lawns. I have Fescue grass mixed with Bermuda. I was having to water daily and since I applied this product I am down to every other day and half the time. The grass is greener and has filled in the brown sections. This product really does what it says. Thanks, I'll be using more of it in the next growing season.
Hydretain
By Azadeh on 08/12/2022
It does not work for Texas heat, if you are in the budget, this item is not budget friendly, I did according how to, I did half of my yard, I looked at The bottle, I have 1/3 left, by the time I finish front and back, it will cost me Couple of $100 . It is good for country or city with temp 88 not above 103. I did not see one single green grass, Also for us with restriction using water Thursday and sun, It will not work. With this item at least you have to water Every other day, good soaking to get result. Cities that water daily, yes it may work. So conclusion it does not work for tx, unless you break the city rules And pay $100's penalty to water daily. Sorry not for Austin
