I may be wrong, but cheap guys liked that i think

Interesting.... any idea on how they are at releasing humidity? Like what percentage they release at? Or do they just absorb?

I have used the polymer crystals for 3 years and have them in everything. Even my actives and cigar oasis. It's the same thing used in many jars and tubes sold. 1 tablespoon makes over a quart.

Cheap, I guess so but it works for me. I have no clue of the rate of release of moisture. Only facts I can say is that once stable I have had to do very little maintenance.Sell me on these magical beads, until then Ive been called worse than cheap lol.

Branden I don't think he was saying you were cheap, at least that's not the way I read it.

I chose the stuff sold at a local garden center. Most economical (cheapest) way for me to go as I needed 60 pounds. I piced up two 30 pound bags for around $90.00.

Jan as I stated before, these don't have a set rate of disbursement. They seem to adjust to the conditions they are used in. It's kinda like training them. To me about a month to get them acclimated but they rarely need any attention. I just check them once a month or so to make sure there is no mold. Other than that, nothing in over three years. So they work great for me.

I've never used the litter but it's the same material so I could only assume it will work as well. The only downside I noticed between the two was the litter seemed to have a lot of dust so I chose the other stuff.

Oh no not at all, I got laugh out of it. Wasn't insinuating there was any name calling. The wife says I'm cheap sometimes so like I took it with a sense of humor. Inside joke on my half maybe I should have worded it a little different. Appologies if taken differently.
