What is LECA Planting Media?

LECA (Lightweight Expanded Clay Aggregate) is a revolutionary, eco-friendly planting medium designed to take the guesswork out of watering and plant maintenance. These small, round balls of clay are fired at high temperatures until they puff up, creating an incredibly lightweight and porous structure. The result? A medium that offers your plants excellent drainage, aeration, and stability, promoting healthy root systems and vigorous growth.

With LECA, gone are the days of dealing with soggy soil, root rot, or inconsistent watering schedules. This innovative medium ensures your plants get just the right amount of moisture they need—no more, no less.

Preparing Your LECA

1. Rinse Thoroughly

Before using LECA, rinse the pellets under running water to remove any clay dust or debris. This ensures that your plants receive the cleanest environment possible.

2. Pre-Soak

Place the rinsed LECA in a container and soak it in water for 12-24 hours. This allows the pellets to absorb water fully, ensuring they provide consistent moisture to your plants from the get-go.

3. Drain and Use

After soaking, drain the excess water and your LECA is ready to use. Fill your plant pots or hydroponic systems with the prepared LECA and transplant your plants. Watch as they adapt and thrive in their new environment.
