## Description

City Greens Leca Clay Balls for Hydroponics, Aquaponics, Orchids, Soil, Aeration, Decoration - 3 litres (1.5 Kgs) : desertcart.in: Garden & Outdoors

Review: Perfect for plants. Worth the money - Perfect round leca balls. Doesn't leave any residue. Making it perfect for growing plants in water or cover the top soil of planter for it retain water longer. Must buy. It's expensive but way better then all the different brand I have tried.
Review: Good quality, serves the purpose and looks good - These are good quality clay pebbles. Make sure you wash rinse them couple of time and soak in plain water overnight before use for best results (longer the better). Some pieces were broken, but still usable. Reusable after rinsing again for next batch of plants. I use diluted hydrogen peroxide to clean them. Good purchase. The other variant made using Fly ash are much lighter, cheaper but leave residue. This one doesn't leave any residue but heavier and aesthetically better looking , so good for bigger plants or for circulating hydroponic system
