LECA Balls are lightweight expanded clay balls used as a growing media, drainage layer or soil amendment for indoor plants, hydroponics and semi-hydro setups. They are a practical choice for growers who want a clean, reusable-style media format that helps create air space around plant roots.

Use clay balls for propagation, potting mixes, net pots, passive hydroponics or improving drainage in suitable containers and plant setups.

Key benefits

  • Lightweight expanded clay balls for plant growing and drainage support
  • Useful in hydroponic and semi-hydro plant setups
  • Helps create air space around the root zone when used correctly
  • Clean, easy-to-handle media compared with loose soil-based mixes
  • Can be used in net pots, pots, propagation setups and custom growing media blends

Best suited to

  • Indoor plant growers using LECA or semi-hydro methods
  • Hydroponic systems that require clay ball media
  • Propagation setups where a stable, free-draining media is preferred
  • Mixing into suitable potting media to improve structure and drainage
  • Growers who want an alternative to traditional soil-based potting media for compatible plants

How to use it

Rinse LECA Balls thoroughly before use to remove dust and loose particles. For hydroponic or semi-hydro setups, place the clay balls into the pot, net pot or container as required for your system, then position the plant so the roots are supported by the media.

For potting media blends, mix clay balls through the growing media where extra drainage and structure are needed. Watering and feeding requirements will depend on the plant, container type, growing method and nutrient routine.

Check before buying

  • Make sure LECA is suitable for the plant and growing method you plan to use.
  • Rinse before use, as clay balls can contain dust from handling and transport.
  • Use the correct pot, reservoir or hydroponic system for your setup.
  • Plants moved from soil into LECA may need extra care while adjusting to the new root environment.
  • LECA Balls are a growing media, not a complete fertiliser replacement.

FAQs

What are clay balls used for?

Clay balls are commonly used as a growing media in hydroponics and semi-hydro setups, as well as for drainage support and custom potting media blends.

Are LECA Balls the same as expanded clay pebbles?

Yes, LECA Balls are a type of lightweight expanded clay media often referred to as expanded clay pebbles or hydroton-style media.

Do I need to wash LECA before using it?

Yes. Rinse thoroughly before use to remove dust and loose particles, especially before using in hydroponic or indoor plant setups.

Can I use clay balls instead of soil?

Some growers use LECA Balls in semi-hydro or hydroponic systems instead of soil, but the plant must be suitable for that method and will need an appropriate watering and feeding routine.

Great bags
Size: 140 Count (Pack of 1), Size: 140 Count (Pack of 1)
I’ve been really impressed with the Glad ForceFlex Tall Kitchen Trash Bags. The durability is definitely noticeable, they hold up well even with heavier trash and don’t tear easily. The ForceFlex feature really makes a difference because the bags stretch instead of ripping. The Gain Lavender scent is also a huge plus, it actually smells fresh and helps keep the kitchen from smelling like garbage. Overall, they’re strong, reliable, and make taking out the trash a lot less unpleasant.

Great scent and convenient design – good everyday trash bags
Size: 40 Count (Pack of 1), Size: 40 Count (Pack of 1)
These were the perfect size for my tall kitchen trash can and fit really well without slipping. The lavender scent is fresh and noticeable without being overpowering, which I really like. One of my favorite features is how easy it is to pull out the next bag. It makes changing the trash quick and simple, which is super convenient for everyday use. The bags are white but still do a good job of covering what’s inside, so they offer a decent amount of privacy. They weren’t quite as strong as I expected, especially with heavier loads, but they still held up well enough for regular household trash. Pros: • Fresh, pleasant scent • Perfect fit for tall kitchen cans • Easy to pull out and use the next bag • Good coverage for privacy Cons: • Not as strong as expected for heavier trash Overall, I think these are a great value for the price and I would buy them again.

Durable
Size: 140 Count (Pack of 1)
The Glad ForceFlex trash bags are strong and reliable, thanks to their stretchable design that helps prevent rips and leaks. The Gain lavender scent with Febreze keeps your kitchen smelling fresh, which is a big plus. The drawstring makes tying and carrying easy. Only downside—they can be a bit pricey compared to basic bags, but the quality makes up for it.

Strong, long-lasting, and with a Gain lavender scent!
Size: 140 Count (Pack of 1), Size: 140 Count (Pack of 1)
I've tried a lot of trash bags, and these Glad ForceFlex Lavender Gain bags have really surprised me. The 13-gallon size is perfect for the kitchen, and the 140-count pack lasts a really long time, so I feel like it's worth it for the quantity. What I like most is that they're strong and don't tear easily when the trash is heavy. The ForceFlex technology really helps because the bag stretches a little instead of ripping. Plus, the Lavender Gain scent leaves a fresh smell and really helps control bad odors in the kitchen. So far, I haven't had any problems with spills or leaks, and that's super important to me. I would definitely buy them again.

High Quality Paper Towels That Actually Last
Package Size Name: Triple, Size: 141 Sheets (Pack of 16)
These are easily some of the best paper towels we’ve used. The cloth-like feel makes a noticeable difference right away. They’re soft but still very strong, and they hold up well even when wet without tearing apart. Absorbency is excellent, so you don’t need to use multiple sheets to clean up a mess. One sheet usually gets the job done, which makes them more efficient than most standard options. They’re also thick enough to handle tougher cleaning without falling apart. Overall, great quality and very reliable. The whole family uses them, and they’ve held up well for everything we need.
