Liaflor / Clay Pellets / Hydroton / Leca (Small). pH stabilized and releases practically no minerals into the nutrient stream; in other words completely inert – except for offering excellent moisture and oxygen capacity to stimulate healthy root development.
-
- Optimal Aeration: The porous nature of the clay allows oxygen to reach the root system easily.
- Moisture Control: LECA absorbs excess water and releases it gradually as the plant needs it, protecting roots from becoming waterlogged.
- Pest & Odor Free: Because it is an inorganic, mineral-based medium, it eliminates common soil pests (like fungus gnats) and odor.
- Reusable: Unlike soil, clay pebbles do not break down over time. They can be washed, sterilized, and used repeatedly.
- Prepare: Soak newly purchased LECA balls in water for 24 hours and rinse thoroughly to remove clay dust.
- Setup: Place the cleaned LECA in a waterproof vessel (pot with no drainage holes). Place your plant’s roots gently among the balls, ensuring they are anchored.
- Watering: Fill the bottom of the container with a water and hydroponic/liquid fertilizer mixture so that it is roughly one third full. Since LECA contains no nutrients, supplying liquid fertilizer is vital for plant growth.
- Maintenance: Regularly flush and rinse the LECA balls every few weeks to prevent salt and mineral buildup.
