yes tons of crystals.... and the sprinkler gets most of the pots in the morning.... i usually take time before work and get the few that the sprinkler doesn't hit.... and during the real hot days I usually water by hand in the afternoon when I get home or after dinner.. but that's therapy time for me don't mind that at all... walk around the garden and see what's growing

these pots took me the longest to water because I filled them up too much... the water had no chance to pool up at the top and soak in.... I would have to pour in a little bit with the watering can and wait for it to soak and and repeat a million times.. thank god i used the crystals in there and only had to do that once a day... won't be making that mistake this year
