Product Description
Mother Earth Hydroton Original (50 Liter Bags), Full Truckload FREE SHIPPING
Product Summary
Mother Earth Hydroton Original supplies expanded clay pebbles for commercial hydroponic and soilless growing systems. Made from natural clay in Germany, the pellets are kiln fired into a durable, lightweight medium. Their 8–16 mm size creates spaces for water to drain and air to move around roots. The semi-porous clay can also hold some moisture.
This full truckload contains 20 pallets with 33 bags per pallet. You receive 660 individual 50-liter bags, totaling 33,000 liters of Hydroton Original. The bagged format lets crews distribute growing media among systems and keep unopened bags available for later installations.
