Description
Lecaballs
Lecaballs-is a versatile and popular growing medium used in gardening and hydroponics. It’s made by heating small clay pellets in a rotary kiln, causing them to expand and form a porous, lightweight structure.
Benefits and Features:
- Optimal Drainage and Aeration:
- The unique porous structure of Lecaballs ensures efficient drainage, preventing water-logging and supplying ample oxygen to roots for accelerated growth.
- pH-Neutral Convenience:
- Enjoy the ease of a pH-neutral medium, enabling reliable maintenance of the proper pH level in your hydroponic system.
- Reusable and Sustainable:
- sustainability: they can be sterilized and reused, reducing environmental impact and cost over multiple growing cycles.
- Lightweight and Supportive:
- strike a perfect balance between stability and lightweight properties, providing a reliable foundation for flourishing plants.
- Inert and Clean:
- Experience a clean and inert growing medium, free from contaminants and pathogens, fostering a healthy environment for robust root development.
- Versatility in Crops:
- From leafy greens to flowering plants, accommodate diverse crop types, adapting to various nutritional and moisture needs.
- Easy Monitoring and Maintenance:
- allow for effortless observation of moisture levels and root health, facilitating precise adjustments for optimal growth conditions.
Different Use Cases for Hydroponic Lecaballs:
- Deep Water Culture (DWC):
- Utilize exceptional porous properties in DWC systems, providing roots ample access to oxygen and nutrients.
- Ebb and Flow Systems:
- establish a balanced hydration and drainage cycle, ensuring consistent nutrient absorption in ebb and flow setups.
- Drip Systems:
- Leverage the moisture retention properties in drip systems, maintaining consistent hydration while preventing water accumulation.
- Nutrient Film Technique (NFT):
- Capitalize on the lightweight nature in NFT systems, promoting strong root growth and facilitating smooth nutrient circulation.
