## Description

The original Hydroton® brand expanded clay is a unique, lightweight expanded clay aggregate made in Germany. This natural clay is mined, formed into pellets, then kiln fired at high temperatures to cause the clay to expand into tough, lightweight balls. Clay naturally has balanced capillary action, with an ideal surface structure. Hydroton® brand expanded clay is semi-porous and generally does not float like other products can. For best results, rinse all expanded clay before use. It is reusable as long as it is thoroughly cleaned between uses. 50 liter bags feature an easy pour spout.

Review: Great price an versatile - Great product. Be sure to soak overnight for best results and to decrease the amount of dust.
Review: Good product - Yes there is some dust. Yes most of the pellets do float but then again I'm not doing underwater terraforming. Are a reddish color with a blackish interior. Are of various sizes which allow a denser packing. Helpful hint to get rid of dust and stop floaters....rinse pellets off, place pellets in water inside a pressure cooker/canner making sure pellets can be or are submersible. Pressure cook/can for about 10 minutes. Can either let cool or just release pressure. Pellets will be floating. Place pellets in container of clean warm water. 99.9% of pellets will sink. Keep pellets underwater until ready to use. Do not allow to dry out. Allow pellets to cool about 15 minutes before using.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great for orchids
*by A***R on May 6, 2024*

Using these for orchids. The product is great for that purpose and for other living walls. Pricing on these type of material is expensive comparatively (to other materials that could be used). Useful and a good product, and the seller was fast and easy to buy from (would buy again). Only the price is the hinderance to using this in place of other materials more often.
