Expanded Clay Aggregate, also known as clay balls or LECA, is produced by heating natural clay at high temperatures to create lightweight, porous granules. It is one of the most popular growing media for hydroponics, aquaponics, and indoor plants like Money Plant, Pothos, and Monstera, prized for its reusability and consistent drainage performance.
It is a popular companion to Perlite Granules and Natural Dried Moss Grass for indoor plant displays in decorative Geo Fabric Circular Grow Bags.
Key Benefits:
- Improves root aeration for healthier, more oxygen-rich root systems
- Supports healthy root growth in both soil and soil-free setups
- Enhances drainage, reducing the risk of overwatering and root rot
- Helps retain moisture at a level suited to hydroponic and indoor growing
- Reusable across multiple growing cycles after rinsing and sterilising
Gardener Tip: Rinse Expanded Clay Aggregate thoroughly before its very first use, not just between growing cycles. Fresh clay balls carry a fine dust coating from manufacturing that can cloud water in hydroponic setups if it isn't washed off at the start.
How to Use:
- Rinse the expanded clay balls with clean water before first use to remove dust.
- Use as a 100% growing medium for hydroponics, or mix 20-40% with potting soil.
- Alternatively, apply as a 2-3 cm top dressing layer on existing pots.
- Clean and rinse before each new planting cycle if reusing.
Dosage: Use as a 100% growing medium for hydroponics, or mix 20-40% with potting soil. Can also be used as a 2-3 cm top dressing.
