Pros & Cons
Pros
Leca pebbles come in a variety of sizes. After several months this orchid continues to do well.
Easy to clean - just poke a few holes in the bottom of the bag. Compared to other offerings here and elsewhere, this 10 liter bag is a steal.
All my houseplants are hydroponic or semi-hydroponic and i love this product for converting from soil to leca. Great variation in sizes, great aeration without damaging your plants. Provides good, clean drainage while retaining moisture as needed.
Cons
At least 2/3 to 3/4 of the bag floated in water. The result looks like clay covered asphalt. I have clay pebbles that are 10 years old and in better shape than these.
Highlights
Quality
Good quality of clay pebbles and value for money
Fast shipping and the product was exactly as they described
The amazon description for the 50l bag is not accurate
Seemed mildly expensive for the 10l bag i probably could have used the 25l and saved some in the long run but hey that’s what ... Read More
Price
The price is pretty good if you are going to need a lot or use them more then once
Considering i needed 3 bags for my 36x18x 36 sized tree frog vivarium cost was a major plus
Shipping
The amount is as described and the shipping was extremely quick for me
Shipping was slow but not to blame product just the seller
Packaging/appearance
Ive purchased 2 bags of the 25l original hydroton too and those are just as described
The clay stones vitamins and minerals feed the plantsi only have to keep water in the container
The 1st time i was actually trying to get the 50l bag of 34original34 but was able to use giant for my larger plants
Competitiveness
I’m also glad i got this bigger 10l bag paid 14
This hydroton is so much better than other brands
This is the 2nd 50l bag ive purchased
Was looking for a highquality hydroponics media that would fill the gap when using 1 inch rockwool cubes inside of 2 inch netpots

If you think you have rinsed them enough rinse them one more time

Somehow i was convinced from another source to use these on top of my indoor plant soil as a way to get rid of gnats
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
It made the gnat problem 100 times worse and now im having to do way more to remove the clay pebbles from every plant as well as continue to tend to the gnat problem every day
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
Well these clay pebbles actually create just enough space for the gnats to hide inside of some of them and on the top layer of the plant soil all the while trapping moisture in the soil
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
I might as well have started a gnat farm

I was sent a clear trash bag of leca in a usps priority postal box
