    2 lb of HYDROTON Clay Pebbles
    This media is the first choice for
    hydroponic
    gardeners
    Hydroton is an expanded clay, a lightweight gravel which is manufactured specifically for soilless cultivation. Derived from a renewable and plentiful source (clay), HYDROTON is considered an ecologically sustainable medium. The clay is formed into pellets and fired in rotary kilns at 1200°C. Thereby the clay expands like popcorn and becomes porous.
    Compared to gravel HYDROTON offers the aquaponic gardener many advantages.
    1/2 the weight of gravel
    The ideal round shape is easy on hands
    Completely inert, pH neutral and does not contain any nutrient (gravel can contain toxic or pH altering materials)
    Porosity creates excellent air and water exchange
    8-16mm range size.
    Compared to soil, peat, coir (coconut fiber) or pearlite HYDROTON offers many additional advantages.
    It can be used and reused for many years
