To clean clay pebbles effectively, start by removing any plant debris, either manually or using a sieve. Then, immerse them in a bucket of pH balanced water for about a day to help dislodge any mineral build-up. Following this, give them a thorough rinse using a strong stream of water. You could also consider boiling for a deeper cleanse, but keep in mind that this might cause cracking. Finally, it's crucial to allow them to fully dry before reusing, to avoid mold formation.To clean clay pebbles effectively, start by removing any plant debris, either manually or using a sieve.

That's really comprehensive, thanks. Is there any specific product that could make this task easier, or is plain water enough?While plain water can do the job, using a gentle hydroponic cleaning solution during the soaking process can yield better results as it's designed to dissolve stubborn deposits more efficiently.William Taylor
Alright. Should I be doing this after every growth cycle, or can I extend the interval between cleanings?We recommend cleaning your pebbles after each growth cycle to prevent salt build-up and other residues that might be detrimental to your plants. Consistent cleaning also helps maintain the optimal conditions for growth.William Taylor
