You know the good in baby diapers (clean ones lol).
I think it's called Silica anyway.
I gutted one of boos diapers and mixed it with my Mame soil so it doesnt dry out as fast.
I just did this and it hasnt stopped raining LOL... gonna see how well it works, might help cut down on watering.
You can buy that stuff in the garden sections I believe.
