A method of preparing a solid water absorbing resin including mixing a monomer solution of (A) acrylic acid neutralized 70-100 mole percent; and (B) a water-miscible to water-soluble polyvinyl monomer in a combined concentration of at least 30 wt. %; with water to form a mixed monomer solution, and adding a thermal initiator and a redox initiator to the mixed monomer solution to form an initiated mixed monomer solution, and wherein the mixed monomer solution is at a temperature below the decomposition temperature of the thermal initiator when the thermal initiator is added to the mixed monomer solution and wherein the temperature of the mixed monomer solution is high enough such that addition of the redox initiator thereto causes sufficient polymerization of the monomers to raise the temperature of the initiated mixed monomer solution to a level sufficient that the thermal initiator decomposes sufficiently to provide, together with the redox initiator, substantially complete polymerization.
