4L Hydroton Clay Pebbles are highly porous expanded clay rocks that serve as an efficient hydroponic growing medium. The pebbles are made from 100% natural clay that is heated at high temperatures to produce lightweight, circular clay balls that are ideal for growing a variety of plants without soil. The all-natural, pH neutral 4L Hydroton Clay Pebbles are highly effective in retaining moisture and preventing the growth of unwanted bacteria and fungi.
