So you're choosing a hydroponic or aquaponic media, and hydroton (clay pebbles) is on your list. Good! Hydroton is worth considering. Read the full pros/cons list here: university.upstartfarmers.com...
When it comes to ease of use, clay pebbles rank higher than most media. They're easy on your hands, easy to plant, and they have good void space/BSA to boot. (It's even reusable and environment friendly.) That's why we recommend clay pebbles first for small growers who are using Bato buckets or media bed systems.
Larger producers using these techniques usually select a cheaper substrate though, as they are more focused on costs and efficiency than convenience.
Be sure to watch our other videos on media like clay pebbles, perlite, and peat. They will make your decision easier!
