Nutrifield® Hydro Clay: Premium Expanded Clay for Hydroponic Success
When it comes to hydroponic growing, the quality of your growing medium can make all the difference. That’s why professional growers trust Nutrifield® Hydro Clay—a premium expanded clay medium designed for superior performance and consistency.
What Is Nutrifield® Hydro Clay?
Nutrifield® Hydro Clay consists of high-grade clay pebbles manufactured in Germany under strict quality control. Each clay ball is formed using a specialized granulation process that results in a uniform spherical shape and consistent size (8–16mm). This ensures reliable drainage, aeration, and structural integrity for all types of hydroponic systems.
Key Features of Nutrifield® Hydro Clay:
-
✅ Consistent Size and Shape: Precision-formed spheres promote even root development and fluid circulation.
-
✅ Durable & Rigid Structure: Clay pebbles won’t break down easily, making them ideal for long-term use.
-
✅ Natural & Pure: Made from freshly mined clay, free from harmful impurities.
-
✅ Pre-Washed Option: Can be used straight out of the bag, though a light rinse is recommended to remove transportation dust.
Why Use Hydro Clay in Hydroponics?
Hydro clay, also known as expanded clay pebbles or LECA (Lightweight Expanded Clay Aggregate), is one of the most popular growing media in hydroponic and aquaponic systems. It provides the perfect balance between moisture retention and aeration, supporting strong root growth while minimizing the risk of root rot.
Benefits for Growers:

How to Prepare Nutrifield® Hydro Clay:
Although Nutrifield® Hydro Clay is clean and ready to use, a quick rinse is recommended before use to remove any dust that may have formed during transport. This helps prevent clogging and ensures optimal performance in your system.
Ideal Applications:

Hydroponics and aquaponics
-
Soil aeration improvements

Propagation systems
