This is the smallest size of crushed Leca Balls(1-4mm) and this is recommended only for mixing in potting soil of small plants (Like-Cactus, Succulents etc.). For bigger plants, we should use bigger size of crushed Leca (3-7mm) which is available on our website.

Crushed Leca plays crucial role in roots aeration, hence these crushed Leca should be used in potting mix of small plants. These are used as soil conditioner for plants. It helps in better root growth.

This size of crushed Leca is used as best substitute of Perlite. It is very helpful to ensure fastest drainage in soil. Even after mixing in soil, these crushed Leca balls do not get powdered for many years and we can re-use them. However, this is not possible with Perlite. After using Perlite, that disintegrates much earlier and drainage in soil is not continued.

But, if we use crushed Leca, eternal drainage in soil is observed while ensuring proper roots aeration. We recommend to use it instead of Perlite.

 These balls can absorb water upto some extent. These crushed clay balls are light weight and also used to make light weight soil media in horticulture. If we pour them in water, they will float (We have shown image). It ensures overall better health of plants.

Due to availability of clearly visible air cavities in these clay balls, they ensure proper exchange of gases in soil for better growth of plants. Use of Crushed Leca in soil helps plants in protection from weather adversity also (i.e. Winter and Summer). Leca Balls are used for thermal insulation and filling material in construction industry.

If you wish to use pebbles over the surface of potted plants' soil, you must use these Leca balls (Approximately 20%) in potting mix. Because these clay balls can ensure better aeration of rooting system, even after putting heavy load of soil/pebbles over them. However, if you are using only Vermiculite/ rice husk / Cocopeat powder as a component in your potting medium, there are high chances for blockage of root aeration due to heavy load of soil or pebbles over them.

For mulching or decoration of top layer of potted plants, these crushed Leca are not preferred by most of the plant lovers. All other sizes of clay balls are available with us.

Ph value : 7, An ideal growing medium must not be too acidic or basic. pH value of these clay balls is neutral.

They are yummy!
I prefer the drops instead of the lolipops. I just love the flavors and no sugar or artificial coloring.

It helps with dry mouth!
These really help with dry mouth and the flavors taste good. It doesn't come in a plastic container like the picture which was disappointing. And it is a little expensive but it is a good variety but I do think it would look better in the box shown here instead of in a box. I poured in in another bag.

Less flavor than the pops. Very disappointing.
I bought these after trying the lollipop type of the same brand. Honestly? I was disappointed in the lack of flavor in yhe drops versus the lollipop style. The reason I purchased the drops was because I do not like dealing with the stick of the pop and just wanted the sucker part of the candy. I thought being the same flavors that they would have the same taste. They do not. The drops have much less enjoyable flavor and are quite bland in comparison to the lollipop style. I guess I'm sticking with dealing with the stick to get any good flavor. I also wish the variety of the flavors in both the Zollipops and Zolli Drops was more evenly distributed. The orange are my favorite flavor and the ratio is low compared to the pink or purple and less flavorful pieces. Anyway, just my 2 cents on the difference I noticed between the two variations of the same product.
