Very good LECA and the best price I could find anywhere
This was the cheapest LECA I could find anywhere, because apparently once hobbyists started loving it, most companies jacked the price way up because they could. It’s good quality, with a little bit of expected breakage, and is doing a fantastic job in my 30-gallon terrarium as a drainage layer. It looks fine, the size variation is acceptable, and it was easy to clean and soak with hardly any dust at all. It’s a nice red-brown color.

Great for Self-Watering Setups â Affordable and Functional Alternative to LECA
I use these in my self-watering pot setup with a wick system. I thread a cotton rope through the base, add a generous layer of these clay pebbles, then top with soil â making sure the wick sits in good contact with the mix. The pebbles help with both drainage and oxygen flow, and they let excess water run off easily during top watering or initial potting. No root rot issues so far!These are a more affordable alternative to LECA, and I actually prefer the mix of large and small pebbles over the tiny âsucculent gravelâ Iâve used before. They strike a good balance between holding structure and letting water drain.Good quality, no weird dust or breakage out of the bag. Iâd definitely repurchase.

really good quality, will order more!
ive been adding these to my plant soil to add additional aeration and theyve been performing well! i first used them in my carnivorous plant terrarium and now it been a mix in my indoor plants soils and its been great. i love that they’re chunky, almost as big as small rocks and they take more space than soil. a great mix!

my plants love this stuff!
my plants love this stuff. The pebbles are a pretty good size. The value for the money was OK. It couldâve been a little cheaper. But the pebbles did exactly what they were supposed to do. One star offer price

Great product. Affordable.
Great for semi-hydro setups. I have purchased two times already and will likely buy more in the future.

Perfect for my planting mix
These are hard to find outside of Amazon, and I felt they were a good value, perfect size and texture, and high quality. I used them in a planting mixes for clivia and Queen’s tears, so I look forward to seeing how these bloom next spring. The natural color blends nicely with the mulch and also looks good as a topping on the soil. I’m sure I’ll be a repeat customer for the next planter of this type.

Quality, and price! 🙂
The best bang for your buck are these. I have not found another place selling these for the amount and price on Amazon. This is my third bag I’ve purchased and I’m very happy with them! I will continue to get these as long as they don’t jack the price up or are no longer available!

Schon beim schütten, selbst bei ganz laaangsamen schütten, sieht man wie der Staub hochgewirbelt wird. Dabei sollen sie doch laut Hersteller sooooo viel weniger staub abwerfen. Anscheinend ja nicht. Farblich ist der Blähton eher grau bis schwarz. Auch das entspricht nicht der Beschreibung bzw. dem Produktbild.Aber Blähton ist nunmal Blähton und für meine Zwecke ausreichend.
