Product details LECA (Lightweight Expanded Clay Aggregate) Hydro stone balls are a type of soil-less growing medium that is commonly used in hydroponic and aquaponic systems. They are also popular for growing plants in containers, especially for those that require good drainage. LECA balls are made from clay that is fired at high temperatures to create a lightweight, porous material with a honeycomb-like structure. They are inert and do not contain any nutrients, but they can hold water and provide aeration to plant roots. To use LECA balls for plants, you can fill a container with them and then plant directly into them. Alternatively, you can use them as a layer in the bottom of a container to improve drainage. They can also be used in hydroponic systems by suspending the plant roots in a container filled with LECA balls and then periodically flooding the container with nutrient solution. Overall, LECA balls can be a useful growing medium for plants, especially those that require good drainage and aeration. They are also reusable and can be sterilized to prevent the spread of diseases between plants. However, it is important to note that they do not provide any nutrients to plants, so you will need to supplement with fertilizer as needed. Reduced risk of pests Easier plant care Less week-to-week maintenance Reusable growing medium ## Features - Item weight1kg/bag , 25kg/bag - Made of 100% natural clay. - Perfect Grow Medium for all horticulteral applications and aquarium fish tanks. - Pre-washed to aid in stability.Drains freely,provides good oxygen,can help absorb some water for your plants. - Lightweight but not broken after soaking, not easy to blow away, inert, pH-neutral, clean & decorative. - Improved drainage: Clay pebbles have a porous structure that allows excess water to drain away from the roots of the plant, reducing the risk of root rot and other moisture-related problems. This can be especially important in hydroponic systems, where plants are grown without soil. - Improved air circulation: The pores in clay pebbles allow air to circulate around the roots of the plant, providing oxygen to the root zone and helping to prevent root rot and other problems. - Nutrient retention: Clay pebbles can help to retain nutrients in the root zone, making them available to the plant as needed. This can be especially useful in hydroponic systems, where plants rely on nutrient solutions rather than soil to meet their nutritional needs. - Temperature regulation: Clay pebbles can help to regulate the temperature of the root zone, keeping it cool in hot weather and warm in cold weather. This can help to improve the overall health and growth of the plant. - Reusable: Clay pebbles can be reused for multiple growing seasons, making them a more environmentally friendly option compared to some other types of growing media. Simply rinse them off and reuse them in your next grow. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0C8TBXW6H | | Best Sellers Rank | #4,225 in Pet Supplies ( See Top 100 in Pet Supplies ) #13 in Aquarium Décor Rocks | | Brand Name | Generic | | Country of Origin | China | | Coverage | All plants and growing systems | | Customer Reviews | 4.3 4.3 out of 5 stars (40) | | Included Components | CLAY | | Item Form | CLAY | | Item Weight | 1 Kilograms | | Liquid Volume | 1 | | Manufacturer | UAE | | Number of Items | 1 | | Number of Packs | 1 | | Part Number | HYDROSTONE-CLAY | | Specific Uses For Product | Plant Growth, Root Development | | Target Species | plants, fish | | Unit Count | 1000.0 Grams | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Generic - **Item form:** CLAY - **Item weight:** 1 Kilograms - **Liquid volume:** 1 - **Specific uses for product:** Plant Growth, Root Development ## Images ![Generic Leca Balls/Expanded Clay Pebbles Grow Media/Drainage Rocks for Potted Plants,Aquaponic,Aquarium,8-14mm Leca Balls for Hydroponics, Hydrostone for Plants Sizes May Vary (1KG) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61XTWJfW6HL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size** options. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pt/products/539877909-generic-leca-balls-expanded-clay-pebbles-grow-media-drainage-rocks](https://www.desertcart.pt/products/539877909-generic-leca-balls-expanded-clay-pebbles-grow-media-drainage-rocks) --- *Product available on Desertcart Portugal* *Store origin: PT* *Last updated: 2026-09-18*
