Dosage and use
Preparation: you can use expanded clay straight from the bag. Before using it in hydroponics or in pots without drainage holes, rinse it with water to remove ceramic dust that could cloud the water and settle on the roots.
Drainage in pots: spread a 3–5 cm layer of expanded clay over the bottom of the pot (up to approx. 1/4 of the height in large pots), cover it with substrate and plant as usual. In a pot without a drainage hole, the drainage layer protects the roots from standing in water. In the garden: spread 5–10 cm of expanded clay at the bottom of a hole for a tree or shrub, and in heavy clay soil, also mix it into the backfill soil.
Substrate component: add approx. 10–20% expanded clay by volume to heavy garden or potting soil and mix it in. The substrate will become lighter and better aerated and will not compact into a crust. In substrates for green roofs and beneath lawns on clay soil, expanded clay serves as a drainage layer.
Mulch: spread a 2–4 cm layer of expanded clay around potted plants and on flower beds. It limits water evaporation, inhibits weed germination and makes it harder for fungus gnats to lay eggs in moist soil. Water through the mulch layer - expanded clay allows water to pass through freely.
