Hi @andrewrb,

Thank you for your question about the Garden Basics Water Storage Crystals welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community, it is fantastic to have you with us.

Knowing that a 9L bucket has a diameter of roughly 30cm, the instructions on the packaging call for 4 level spoons or roughly 20 grams of water crystals for a pot of a similar size.

 

This is of course assuming the bucket is being used as either a pot or to mix the soil with the crystals before potting.

Let me know if you have any further questions.

Jacob
