Tongue & groove lawn & garden rainwater containment tiles Are specially designed tongue and groove tiles with trays that will collect and hold rain water from underneath the grass of a lawn and supply the water to the roots of the grass Keeping the grass well watered for a extended period of time even during drought. Each tile consist of three layers the first layer is a plastic tray. The second layer is a screen. The third layer is a soil & grass casing. One tile will be secured to the next tile creating one unit along the with and length of the lawn. After the tiles are installed together they will be secured to the ground, the soil will then be placed inside and on top of the tiles then the sod/grass will be placed on top of the soil covering the tiles completely the tiles will not be seen after the soil & grass are lad on top of them. leaving the lawn tolerant of drought and looking like a normal lawn.
The lawn and garden water containment tiles how they work - One tile will be secured to the next, working together to create on unit. The edges and sides of the tile will be lined with tongues and grooves. This design will enable the tiles to be secured together creating one unit. The tiles will be secured to one another over the width and length of the lawn. The screens and casings will be placed over the individual tiles/ trays. The soil will then be poured inside the adsorbent screen box & on top of the screen and inside casings, and then the sod will be placed over each tile. The sod Squares will be butted against one another to create a seamless, continuous lawn. When rain falls the water will drain threw the grass and collect within the individual cells of the tiles. The adsorbent screen box which fits inside the water cell of the tile will make contact with the water inside the water cell and it will wick water from the water cell and draw it up to the soil on top of the screen. The roots will then draw water upward from the soil to the grass as needed. In addition, the extended water storage function of these tiles will allow grass to be nourished over a prolonged period, even during drought. This product can not be seen after sod/grass is installed on to top of it.
