Rurtsva Natural Organic Clay Pebbles 2lbs 8-18mm – Leca Grow Media for Hydroponics

Overview

Rurtsva Natural Organic Clay Pebbles are lightweight, inert grow media formed from expanded clay. Each 2 lb bag contains 8-18 mm spheres in a warm reddish brown that adds a natural accent to pots while delivering reliable aeration and drainage. The pebbles stay intact after soaking, resist crumbling, and store neatly for reuse. As an inert, pH-neutral medium, they won’t shift your mix’s chemistry, making it easy to observe how plants respond to different amendments.

Key benefits

• Lightweight and durable for easy handling and long-term usage.
• Inert and pH-neutral, helping maintain stable growing conditions.
• Clean to handle and rinse, reducing dust during setup.
• Porous structure enhances air reach to roots and improves drainage.
• Reusable across grow cycles when cleaned and stored properly.
• Low-maintenance option that works across multiple plant types.

Ideal uses

Size and capacity details: The 6 to 18 mm size range fits a variety of pots, and a 2 lb bag can fill about twenty 2 inch pots, eight 3 inch pots, or two 5 inch pots. The material is reusable across cycles, helping you manage watering without over-saturation.

Practical care and tips
