VitaLink02-050-110 45L Clay Pebbles Bag, Red

Obviously ideal for its intended application of hydroponics and allied uses- but do be aware of the pebble size-range of this product before you consider purchasing, as an 8-20 mm size range is quite large and is not really suitable for mixing in with standard compost for general-purpose use; and no, I haven't emptied the whole bag out to see if the smaller ones are at the bottom !! However, it's ideal for my uses of rooting down and growing on of cacti and succulents and other 'touchy' greenhouse plants. Plenty of air is afforded to the stems/cuttings/offsets by using these pebbles mixed-in with a small amount of basic compost. Big bonus for me is a fairly heavy product (by the bag) delivered to your door for free (with Prime) !

Bigger than expected, with a good variation in sizes (I was told that is a good thing for potting mix), very little powdered left on the bag (but one needs to allow for a bit of it), excellent value and the delivery was super quick as well.Be aware that they are not the decorative kind, I would only use them for soil aeration as intended and not as ground cover.Generally I hate ordering from Amazon and avoid it as the quality of products is often well below par, not in this case, 10 out 10 from me.

Chunky grey pebbles, not the more usual neat round reddish-brown sort. Suitable for all but the most delicate of root systems. They work perfectly well even though they’re not quite as aesthetically pleasing. Considering they’re about half the price of the other sort, I’m happy (and so are my plants!).

perfect item

No more cloggy compost in planters mix them in, made a big difference. Also use in the bottom of pots for drainage.

Delivered damaged with two holes in the bag, so don’t know how much product is missing.The pebbles are perfect for horticulture needs, random sizes, dark in colour.If you are expecting round, terracotta coloured balls, this is not for you.

Good value, quality and versatile. Does the job.

I ordered the 10l bag thinking I'd try them before ordering loads more for my larger potted plants, however, I didn't even finish this bag!Overall the pebbles aren't exactly pretty, but they're better than soil, and will hopefully help with keeping the pot midges down too. If you want pretty I'd go for the more terracotta-coloured variants out there, however they're nearly double the price.Straight out of the bag, they do need a wash, using a seize, however this is quick and easy.
