Proper drainage and aeration are the secrets to a thriving garden. If your soil is too dense, your plants won’t breathe. This is where Clay Pebbles (LECA) and Perlite come in.
-
Clay Pebbles: These expanded clay balls are highly porous and pH-neutral. They are perfect for the bottom of pots to ensure water doesn’t sit at the roots, preventing root rot. Plus, they are reusable!
-
Perlite: This volcanic glass is lightweight and helps keep the soil loose. By adding perlite to your mix, you ensure that oxygen can reach the roots, which is essential for nutrient absorption.
Why use them? Combining these amendments creates the perfect environment for both indoor and outdoor plants, ensuring they stay hydrated but never waterlogged.
