I got a bag of Geolite (lightly expanded clay aggregate) similar to hydroton, but sort of a brownish-charcoal to charcoal in color. Not sure what the difference is but I like the color much better than Turface and it seems to have larger pores, almost like pumice or scoria. It is in 16mm size and I crush and screen it to 1/8 to 1/4 inch. I can easily get Turface, but I don't like the high waste content of overly small particles.
Has anyone ever used Geolite.....any info?
I'm not sure what's the difference between Turface, Bonsai Block and Geolite, which are all labeled as LECA, or calcined clay, but they seem to be different in color and porosity. Is it the clay material used or the firing temps that make the difference?
