It works, here in Texas its a must every summer to keep my yard green for July-Sept

It definitely helps down here in south texas during this drought. The clay soil was rock hard and water wouldn't even absorb at all. After treatment the water soaks in perfect and the lawns roots are growing deeper. Just my experience 👍

Thank you for sacrificing your lawn (in some areas) to make this video, it’s really appreciated! The trouble I find is that I end up watering according to my same schedule and don’t seem to adjust it when using hydratain but I assume, in the long run, the lawn is better off for it!

It’s helped me a lot over the past few years. I loved it.

One of the BEST videos on the benefits of Hydretain I've seen! No argument that Hydretain did help your turf. The marking off of your turf was an unbiased test. I've used Hydretain for 2 years on type tall fescue and although not a miracle it does help my turf in the summer months. Thanks for a fantastic test for Hydretain.

I live in St. Louis too, and this summer has been extremely hot! I did 2 apps this summer on my fescue and watered about 1/2 inch per week and I gotta agree with you, hydratain has really helped. I think it's worth my money. Awesome vid!

Thank you for taking time to demonstrate the effectiveness of this product. We used it last year during the record setting Texas drought in San Antonio Texas with 74 days over 100 degrees.. We thought we saw the difference between our yard and the neighbor's yards around us. This year we have applied a granular method and eight weeks latter a liquid method. Summers are long and hot here in South Texas and we will probably have to do one more application before it is over. We are like you with having a high maintenance low cut lawn of Bermuda grass.

Great Test. I'm in Florida and Hydretain is a must. We can get 6 inches of rain and in 3 days the grass has drought stress. In fact I hired and lawn service on my Sister's lawn that was up for sale and they said Hydretin and pest control were the most important things for laws.

No bs! straight to the point. Deserve a thumb up.

It works amazingly well in north Texas on my Bermuda. I put it down in May and July of this year. It’s now September and my lawn has been greener all season than ever before and also greener than all of my neighbors. I looked back at last years water bills and I have used half as much water as last year during June and July. August I used 33% less water than last year. I did ramp up the water a bit during the excessive non stop heat we had. This year has been relentlessly hot too, excessive days 100-110. Im sold and Hydretain will be going down 2x a year from now on, May and July. Important to get it down BEFORE the heat sets in. I did the front in liquid and the back in granules as a test. Both worked very well but I like applying the liquid better so will go with that

I did a split app of Hydretain last year as well as liquid aerate, humic acid and some liquid iron at the onset of Summer. And second hydretain 6-7 weeks later. I ended up watering twice, I believe, and the grass barely experienced any dormancy. Zone 5 KBG/Fine Fescue.

Thanks for taking the time to review this product. I’ve been on the fence, but not anymore. Also, have to thank you for giving me the idea to buy a hanger weight. I’ve always struggled using my scale trying to figure out granular weight.

Excellent video Brandon. I had some left over granular from last year and applied it in July. Even though I am in the North East . Heat and humidity here takes its toll on the KBG. Watering everyday during that stretch help my lawn recover from the heat stress. Increasing my HOC also helped out the new sod for sure.

You have a really good speaking voice and tone. You should seek out narration gigs. No joke

I agree with how you see it as well. Does it help? Yes. Necessary, no. Another tool in the tool box, yes I believe so. Thanks for sharing Brandon!

Great video and love the level of depth your channel has. Think the SCAM thumbnail is disappointingly misleading given your conclusion though.

Great video, brother. I'm pretty sure I have an very old video saying it pulls moisture out of the air, and felt dumb when I learned better 😆 Well Done all around 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

Excellent content dude! 👏 👏 👏

Nice job on sharing your wisdom on using Hydretain soil moisture manager...🤙🏿

This was super thorough! Thanks for sharing your findings!

Very good study. Interesting results on the roots. Agree on the uptake of Nutrients With hydretain. Thanks Brandon great video

Definitely going to give this a go after watching this, my irrigation season is coming to an end here in a couple weeks, but want to keep pushing the tiller growth till the bitter freeze out of my coolseason spots

Thank You for a nice brief...talking about all the considerations. I will try it on my lawn.

Awesome test!! Often there’re test with no follow up or the the test is so short and unrealistic and content creators just wanna hurry up and put a vid out. You were a little misleading with the thumbnail but hey…still great video. I was a little on the fence about it considering it’s now $70 for the big boy jug. This video I actually hit like and subscribe so I’ll be waiting for more content and looking at some of your past vids.

Great video. You sound like a pro to me!

Thanks for your time and content. 👍

I've seen some suggest that liquid dish soap does the same as Hydratrain. Have you ever compared this? Good video.

Hello sir. Have you heard of Revive? I've used the liquid soil lawn treament and it works great! Highly recommended. Thank you. Great video!

Nice, controlled, to the point, helpful.

Great review! I've had good luck with S1's Lesco Moisture Manager, granular - which I believe is the same active ingredients as the OEM. Just a private label product (I think 😄).

Great work on this video!

Great info. Used this last year in northern Illinois and had good results. I want to get this down earlier this year as I caught it too late in hot June. When do you recommend it get applied for summer coverage?

I use the liquid. It works.

Very welcome results driven content. Thanks!

Great content dude

Have you ever used growth regulator? I just purchased Andersons granulated product. Should be interesting to see if I can get my lawn more thicker and tighter. Hopefully you can purchase and give us a review! Thanks

I just applied the liquid hose end sprayer. I have 10 SQ ft of lawn. Will use granulated hydrotain going forward. Much easier for me based on having a big piece of property. You agree? Thanks

great video man... just to be sure though, this was a one time application going into the entire summer?

Have you tried a humic acid + baby shampoo/surfactant mixture versus Hydretain? We are in a bad drought here in the Central Brazos valley and I have treated my yard multiple times with a BioAdvanced product named "Lawn Root Moisturizer." It seems to help and it lists its active ingredients as Humetics and Surfactants. It looks like liquid humic acid and slightly bubbles like it has a detergent in it if I spray on one patch for a while. I'm going to try my homemade recipe.which is less than 1/2 the cost! I'm also going to pray for some rain...

Excellent... thank you!

Great video! Would you suggest applying this before or after dethatching/overseeding for the upcoming Fall?

Great great vid!

Looks like a fun experiment! What’s the cost difference liquid vs granular per full application?

Do you think that your area where the dry spots need a little more liquid aeration, I use SeaKelp with Yucca and Humic acid Hydretain which extend the moisture of my turf once a month during June through August with and the results are outstanding no stress in my lawn, I have no trees on my property or around my lawn, yes I have in-ground sprinkler system but I water 3 min every hour from 10 am to 3 pm only when temperature at 85 degrees or above them day only I have 6 zones other than that, I let the rain do the rest. This is just for preventing heat stress on my 20,000 square feet of lawn.

Great Vlog!!! Are you using Hydretain weekly, bi-weekly, monthly or just the (1) one time ?? Ty 🤙🏻

Curious where you got your hose-end sprayer and whether or not you like it? Great video 👍

Great video, would you say hydratain or PGR has a greater affect for a great looking lawn ?

Thanks. 🙏🏽

May I ask you about your personal hose-end sprayer bottle with the measurements...I have not been quite lucky getting a good one from the stores. Do you have a link to buy the hose bottle? Gracias.

But even if you were not to back off sprinkler system do you believe still very effective? Thanks

What about a comparison to baby shampoo because it is often said they do the same thing

I'm curious if it can stand up to it's claim of needing 50% less water (Tough to test, I know). At 5:43 you said you irrigated 1" of water per month, is that correct or did you mean 1" per week? I think your KB lawn with that much heat stress looks pretty good if it only got 1/4" of water a week. My irrigation system put down 1/2" of water every 35-40 minutes of run time depending on the zone.

Affiliate links to the product tell me you like it. No need to watch the video. Thanks

3:08 he meant to put 9 oz per 1k square feet. NOT 90 lol

You must reapply how often? Every 30 days?? Thanks

How much in a gallon u think I should use just for hanging plants on my porch?

Another lawn care channel said Hydretain is not worth the money but he bought his before he could the comparison test. You were sent yours free, funny how you praise it when you get it free and he condemns it when he buys it. This is the problem with all channels, they are just commercials for the companies who send out free product. We CANNOT trust anybody on KZfaq or anything they say. It's all paid advertisement

any issues using this after summer fertilizer etc put down ?

Sorry man but this demonstration really does no justice when you're grass is full & already green. J/S coming from a Floridan. Thanks for the video however. 👍💚

Scam for the cost. If it was half the price I would say its worth something.

Whow it is?

Hi just wondering what turf type is that ??

What cultivar of KBG you have?

clickbait thumbnail, amazon affiliate links and a hand spreader lmao

Proof is that you didn't water 50% less as advertised. So proved it doesn't save money or work.

LOL! At the 90 day point, half of his control grass is dead/dormant, while the Hydretain sections looked great, then tries to talk you out of believing what you saw. You should work for the Trump campaign. Also, sister, you have a thatch problem.
