FertiSorb is a new plant food product that uses a super-absorbent polymer as the nutrient delivery system. Fertilizer is embedded into the polymer, creating a chemical bond. When the product is hydrated, the nutrient is placed into solution and is available to the plant by root contact. There is no leaching of nutrient and no buildup of salts in the growing media. The product is primarily meant for use in containers and hanging baskets. FertiSorb is available to home gardeners through the company's website,
