Premium clay pebbles for orchids

This set consists of 11 pounds of expanded clay aggregate, often referred to as LECA. The pebbles are sized between 14mm and 16mm, making them slightly larger than standard media and ideal for plants that require significant aeration, such as orchids. The natural clay material is fired at high temperatures to create a durable, porous structure.

The lightweight nature of these pebbles makes them easy to handle when filling large pots or hydroponic troughs. They serve as an excellent drainage layer at the bottom of traditional soil pots or as a standalone medium in semi-hydroponic setups. Because they are chemically inert, they will not interfere with the nutrient balance of the water.

These listings highlight the versatility of the media for use in aquaponics and general horticulture. The pebbles help maintain a humid environment around the roots while preventing the saturation that leads to decay. This bag provides a substantial amount of material for several medium-sized plants or a single large indoor gardening project.
