Hydroponic Grow Medium

It is important to choose the right hydroponic grow medium for your particular needs

There are many different types of hydroponic grow mediums available on the market today. Each has its own advantages and disadvantages.

One of the most popular hydroponic growth mediums is clay pellets sold as Hydroton or LECA. These small, lightweight pellets are easy to work with and provide ample support for roots.

Another popular choice is perlite, which is a lightweight, porous material that helps to aerate the root zone.

For a more natural option, coco coir is an excellent choice. This soil-less medium is made from coconut husks and is very effective at retaining moisture.

Whichever type of hydroponic grow medium you choose, be sure to select one that is appropriate for your climate and planting needs.
