AMAZING. \r\n\r\nI posted a lil while back a tutorial I found on Tumblr on how to make diapers more absorbent and bulky. I got a couple comments about how it might irritate skin, so I didn't try it. \r\n\r\nI saw another poster here on Reddit have a bag of the crystals with his stash and I inquired about it. He said that he had good luck with adding crystals. \r\n\r\nSo I cut a tiny hole (like less than one centimeter) on the inside back, just above the padding. I used a funnel to pour the crystals into the spot between the liner and plastic. I didn't really know how much to put in, maybe half cup? Then folded it taco-style and tried to distribute throughout, but due to the expansion that part doesn't really matter.\r\n\r\nAnyway, it was AMAZING. A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!! \r\n\r\nI wore it for ~14-15 hours, didn't experience any issues with skin irritation or other problems. \r\n\r\nHOWEVER, I did experience the best feeling I've probably had. It was **SO bulky, SO squishy, SO heavy.** \r\n\r\nI ordered 5 more packages of the crystals to mod my diapers now. \r\n\r\n**YOU WOULD LOVE IT**\r\n\r\nMiracle-Gro Water Storing Crystals, 12-Ounce Miracle-Gro \r\n\r\nhttps://smile.amazon.com/dp/B0042YYVYG/ref=cm_sw_r_tw_dp_x_6LvzFb65GNNJW","subreddit_name":"GirlsInDiapers","author":"Ruby-Rainy"},{"body":"I've used the Precipitube for many years; I've tried other humidification systems but haven't found anything else that works better (aside from humidifying your room or house) - I only use a little bleach if the crystals are visibly turning black, and I don't put the tube back into my case without wiping it and making sure it's dry. \r\n\r\nThe crystals hold moisture well enough that I've never had issues with the tube dripping, and I use mine in a relatively expensive case (an Accord); I have a friend who uses a Precipitube in a Gewa Idea (which has the same interior as the Air) without any problems. I have other friends who use them in their Riboni, Musafia, Negri, and other premium cases, and standard cases like Bobelocks and Bams - nobody has ever had any issues.\r\n\r\nIf the crystals seem too far gone to fix with bleach, I replace them - [these](https://www.amazon.com/Miracle-Gro-Water-Storing-Crystals-12-Ounce/dp/B0042YYVYG/ref=sr_1_4?dchild=1\u0026amp;keywords=water+absorbing+crystals\u0026amp;qid=1599857828\u0026amp;sr=8-4) seem to be the same as what they use, and $9 gets you enough for a lifetime, even if you share with friends.","subreddit_name":"violinist","author":"dounis42"},{"body":"The most popular is probably from Miracle-Gro.\r\n\r\nhttps://www.amazon.com/Miracle-Gro-Water-Storing-Crystals-12-Ounce/dp/B0042YYVYG\r\n\r\nYou should definitely have them in your country in some local gardening store.

You dump it in the vase with the water and they swell up and become a gel like substance. You can also buy larger amounts (like in the Amazon link) intended for mixing in with potting soil. Also I have a pet lizard and occasionally when I receive orders of live bugs through the mail the seller might throw in a small baggie of crystals that looks identical to this (mix the crystals with water then you can give the crystals to the bugs as a source of water).\r\n\r\nUltimately its going to be impossible to say for sure what a mystery white crystal substance might be just from a picture :).

Basically take a big handful of them and toss them in a bucket of water, let them absorb for a little while and then mix them into your pot. You could probably cover with rocks or some kind of mulch and you should be fine.  \r\n\r\nAlso, I feel like chili's are fairly resilient and would bounce back quickly should anything go awry.","subreddit_name":"gardening","author":"JThoms"},{"body":"google *garden water crystals* - [The first one I saw on Amazon was just under $9 for a 12 oz bag.

Soooo helpful for containers.\r\n\r\nPetunias are actually a sun-to-part-shade flower, not a 16-hrs-day-blinding-sun flower.  Truly full-strong-sun annuals include celosia, cosmos, coreopsis, gazania, nasturtium, poppies, moss rose (Portulaca grandiflora), rudbeckia, salvia, sunflowers, and zinnias.  But if you can provide good soil and steady water, petunias should be ok.\r\n\r\nGarden produce: Just dig in lots of manure, and you'll be able to grow any normal vegetables.

I would get some good temperature and humidity gauges before making any changes, though. I just made a comment in another thread outlining my gauge setup. If there was a single one I would go for, it would be the IR temp gun and there are some digital hygrometers you can get for \\~$5.\r\n\r\nOn the diet, try to work in more variety. Crickets are okay but mealworms shouldn't be a staple. Phoenix worms are really good for them, dubia roaches and silkworms are also very nutritious. Part of the issue with mealworms is the amount of exoskeleton that is difficult to digest in large amounts.\r\n\r\nGut-loading is just feeding the insects nutritious food and giving them water before feeding. This ensures that they are packed with vitamins and nutrients, as well having a higher water content. Whatever is going into the insects is going into the gecko. Veggies like fresh collards are good, potatoes, and a \"chow\" can be bought premade online or made yourself cheaply (chicken feed, fish food, and calcium mixed together seems to be good).
