It is often applied prior to rain when a storm is in the forecast. Penterra is also used after flooding has occurred. This is why Penterra is often referred to as the rain drain. However, Penterra does more as a water management tool and for water conservation than just move rain water in flooding situations. Penterra is also effective to evenly distribute water in dry soil conditions or to effect localized dry spot. There are many other benefits to soil and plant health as well.
