Product Description
Mother Earth Hydroton Original (25 Liter Bags), Full Truckload FREE SHIPPING
Product Summary
Mother Earth Hydroton Original delivers expanded clay growing media for commercial hydroponic systems, aquaponics, and greenhouse container production. Made in Germany from natural clay, the pellets are kiln fired to create a durable, lightweight structure. The 8–16 mm pebbles leave spaces for drainage and air movement around roots, while their semi-porous surfaces can retain some moisture.
A full truckload contains 20 pallets with 60 bags per pallet: 1,200 individual 25-liter bags and 30,000 liters of Hydroton Original. The 25-liter size lets growing teams distribute media among beds, containers, and separate facilities in manageable quantities. Rinse the pebbles before use, then fill the growing system or combine them with another medium according to the crop and setup.
