Garden Clay Pebbles:
Lightweight Expanded Clay pebbles is a great growing medium for all plants. It provides excellent
drainage as well as moisture retention. Use it as a decorative mulch for potted plants, in ground plants, as an
add mix to containers, and as a bottom layer for drainage. It is also widely used in hydroponic growing and is pH neutral. The pores in the stones store water and release water when required therefore providing an excellent environment for root development. Ideal for roses, orchids and all types of fruits and vegetables
Light expanded clay aggregate, also commonly referred to as "grow rock", is ideal for indoor hydroponic growth because of its neutral properties - Garden clay pebble has no acid or alkaline characteristics.
Garden Clay Pebbles features as insulation material
- Thermal Insulation
- Sound Insulation
- Fire resistance
- Non-decomposability
- Water absorption
Garden Clay Pebbles features as growing medium
- Natural---clay pebbles does not contain organic substances, doees not decompose, and is rot-free and parasite-free.
- Easy to use---clay pebbles can be kept for an unlimited time, without ever changing. Supplied in bags is easy to use, store, carry and dose.
- Specific pH---clay pebble's pH value is between 6 and 7.
Fields of use:
VASE/POT PLANTS
Clay pebbles in peat substrates limits excessive water retention, enhances drainage and increases the porosity for the air, an essential factor for the proper growth of roots and plants; a humid but not wet soil limits the formation of rotten roots and parasite fungus. Clay pebbles does not release any salinity and does not change the pH factor of the mixture, thanks to its low buffer power.
Clay pebbles does not turn yellow, does not pack down, doesn't change or decompose in time or due to humidity; it's aesthetically nice to see. The quantities for the clay pebbles mixture with peat or the already prepared peat substrate, must be chosen by the flower-grower according to the plant, the peat, the irrigation times used in the greenhouse. Generally it ranges from 20% (1 part of clay pebbles every 4 of peat) to 40% (2 parts of clay pebbles every 3 parts of peat).
HANGING GARDENS
Clay pebbles is the right product for creating lightened draining layers for plants and hanging gardens. In the
mixtures with the cultivation soil, it assures lightness to the structure and a water and air reserve for the
plants. Clay pebbles is perfect for filling flower pots and boxes. It can be supplied with dumper trucks or tank
trucks equipped for vertical pumping up to 30 m or horizontal up to 80÷100 m.
FLOWER POT ARRANGEMENT
Clay pebbles has a pleasant aesthetical appearance, and has become a must for plants cultivated in vases. The brownish round (not spherical) granules are a natural finishing for flower pots and flower arrangements.
BOX FILLING
Clay pebbles is used to fill boxes and assures a constant temperature, drainage, humidity level and no
maintenance, especially when the roots stick out of the vase.
PLANTS IN GREEHOUSE CONTAINERS
The soil in the containers is subject in time to pressing due to its weight and the water. Adding clay pebbles significantly and permanently improves its porosity features for air and drainage, thus avoiding the suffocation of the roots and enhancing the overall result. Furthermore, the soil, with 20-30% of clay pebbles, reduces the excessive weight of the containers, yet assuring the necessary stability. Clay pebbles is also useful when moving plants from the container to the customer's garden. A layer of clay pebbles on
the bottom of the hole assures drainage and the right level of humidity so the plants take root better.
HYDROCULTURE
Clay pebbles is the ideal substrate for hydro-culture. The minimum level of salinity released assures the inertia of the substrate, primary condition for the proper operation of the system. It is also lightweight and easy to handle, it has moderate water retention and excellent porosity for air. The shape and the different sizes of the grains are such as to “bound” well and assure a good support to plants, even tall and heavy ones.
