How to Use Expanded Clay Balls

🌱 For Hydroponics and Semi-Hydroponics

Use as a standalone growing medium in hydroponic systems.
Regularly flush to prevent mineral buildup and maintain efficiency.


🌿 For Terrariums

Add a drainage layer at the bottom to store excess water and prevent mold.
Regulates humidity and stabilizes the terrarium environment.


🌾 As a Mulch Layer

Acts as a protective barrier on top of the soil, preventing rapid evaporation.
Reduces watering frequency and improves moisture retention.



Why Expanded Clay Balls Work

Porous structure - Holds water while allowing air circulation
Prevents soil compaction - Ensures proper root oxygenation
