My missus had a handful of that water retainer left last year after making
up some hanging baskets. Thought she'd chuck it in amongst the flowerbeds
and nobody would notice. Until the next rain that is! What a mess!

Sounds like the material they put in for water retention possibly?

LOL, I just read the back of the bag and it's exactly that. I didn't
realise when I bought that there was anything special about the compost
except it was for baskets. I guess the heavy rain made the put the gel
into overdrive.

Thanks for the help!
