Nicely done, as usual. Cod liver oil was my initial reaction. What are these used for?

Cheers David.
They're used in flower arranging and in plant pots as they slowly release the water back.
There's probably a quarter of a teaspoons worth of dry beads there.
Google water gel beads and it will explain it better than I can
I know what i like, If not always why.
