GEOLITE PEBBLES
Lightweight expanded clay pebbles serve as a strong, durable, and versatile media, perfect for hydroponics and many horticultural applications. Made from 100% natural Italian clay, this media has a consistent EC and a stable, neutral pH. It offers great aeration and drainage, ensuring good root development. Thanks to the clay pebbles' unique structure and ability to cover a large surface area, they offer the ideal environment to foster beneficial bacterial growth around the root zone. Ideal for drip-feed, deep water culture, and flood and drain systems. They can also be used for tropical house plants.
BENEFITS
- High total porosity provides excellent root ventilation and oxygenation to plants
- Stable and low-EC
- Excellent draining capacity
- Strong, stable, and durable
- Great for soil aeration and drainage
APPLICATION
-
Soil Ingredient: Mix with the other components of a soilless media (coco coir, peat, compost, etc.) to improve its physical and chemical properties at a rate of 20% to 40%
- Mulching: 5-10cm layer placed on top of the soil substrate prevents weed growth, reduces moisture loss due to evaporation
- Hydroponics: Can be used alone or in combination as the ideal inert substrate for hydroponic and aquaponic crops
- Drainage/Aeration: Place a layer of the material 3-10cm thick, below the growing medium in a container
