New UT Research Could Help Turn Inhospitable Soil into Fertile Ground

Around May of last year, after a few months of working (and doing just about everything else) from home, I decided to turn my concrete balcony into something a little more lush. Like anyone who has been confined to a very small condo during the pandemic, I became a bit obsessive over something that, pre-COVID, I had never even considered: creating a personal oasis out of an uninspired slab.
I spent lunch breaks wandering around outdoor garden centers and evenings scrolling through Central Texas gardening blogs. I bought star jasmine, carefully twining and training it along the metal railing as it grew. I filled the corners with tall potted cacti that drew blood from my arms as I wrestled them out of their nursery pots. And I coaxed bushy green hibiscus plants to flower, which delighted me with bright pops of red and yellow. With no way to sustain the weight of raised beds, late-night Googling led me to discover hydroponics. Now, most evenings, I walk through my carefully l ....

New Type of Soil Waters Plants by Itself
A new type of soil can pull water from the air and distribute it to plants, researchers report.

The self-watering soil could potentially expand the map of farmable land around the globe to previously inhospitable places and reduce water use in agriculture at a time of growing droughts.
As reported in
ACS Materials Letters, the team’s atmospheric water irrigation system uses super-moisture-absorbent gels to capture water from the air. When the soil is heated to a certain temperature, the gels release the water, making it available to plants. When the soil distributes water, some of it goes back into the air, increasing humidity and making it easier to continue the harvesting cycle. ....
