clay ball grow

[t.stoned]

i have used clay balls in alot of grows with current setup.I have large dark brown clay balls(bag is not named.I hav bags of other clay balls that are smaller and hold more moisture.Still i see benifits in using both.Though to small seems to fall apart easier.About to buy more and might use a little of both but if i could find a name for larger dark brown ones i would be happy.The smaller ones are definitely the more common.Anyone out there been here and able to give me advice.I think larger ones may get to 20 or 22mm and weigh a fraction when dry or wet.

Never seen ones that are 20mm, but I thought they were called hydroton clay balls. Or fired clay balls.

Scoria may be an easier alternative for larger particle size, from understanding they have similar moisture holding ability and light weight even when wet.
