Manufactured from high-quality baked clay, these lightweight pebbles provide excellent \u003cstrong\u003edrainage, aeration and root support\u003c\/strong\u003e, creating an ideal root environment. They suit a wide range of systems including \u003cstrong\u003eflood and drain, drip irrigation, NFT, DWC and recirculating setups\u003c\/strong\u003e, and can also be mixed into soil and coco to improve drainage. Poor drainage and low oxygen around the roots cause slow growth, root disease and reduced yields; these pebbles create air pockets so roots stay oxygenated while excess solution drains freely.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eKey Benefits\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExcellent drainage and root-zone aeration\u003c\/strong\u003e to prevent waterlogging\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStrong root development\u003c\/strong\u003e and vigorous, healthy growth\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEfficient nutrient uptake\u003c\/strong\u003e for better flowering and yield\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003epH stable and low in soluble salts\u003c\/strong\u003e for a clean root environment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReusable\u003c\/strong\u003e after thorough cleaning and sterilisation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSolid structural support\u003c\/strong\u003e for larger plants in automated systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWaterlogged roots and slow drainage in your hydro system?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePoor drainage and lack of oxygen\u003c\/strong\u003e around the root zone lead to slow growth, root disease and reduced yields.
