I'm currently looking at changing my coco and aeration and considering some clay pebbles.
Any suggestions, opinions and alternatives for an organic grow please?

To provide any meaningful input I'd need to know the setup buddy.

Organic amendments @seymore_budz
I've heard clay pebbles aren't great for the environment though. I know GHO does buck weat hulls. I'm currently using perlite but want to steer away from that and the ecothrive coco.

Re: Suggestions please
So clay pebbles are very porous. On their own they would make a terrible choice for amended media but as part of a blend they can work really well. Not saying that they would be my first choice though. I'm a fan of the old-school perlite/vermiculite.

I found these online. Anyone used them here? They look better for the environment than clay too.
