## Overview

BuddyStone is a revolutionary growing medium crafted from 100% recycled glass, designed to enhance air and water retention for healthier plants. Ideal for hydroponics, aquaponics, and green roofs, this non-toxic and reusable substrate is perfect for both indoor and outdoor gardening, making it a sustainable choice for eco-conscious gardeners.

## Description

BuddyStone is a unique growing medium made from 100% recycled glass. It is the perfect substrate for hydroponics, aeroponics, aquaponics, aquascaping and green roof gardening. Use it to grow vegetables, herbs and flowering plants in soilless systems or with soil, letting BuddyStone serve as a soil conditioner. Engineered to create optimum, consistent growth, BuddyStone works in both indoor and outdoor gardens. It features a combination of big and small pore spaces that store the water, air and nutrients that plants need. The pores create the perfect balance of moisture absorption and drainage. The damp, highly aerated environment promotes hairy root growth, which results in more nutrient and water uptake. Roots adhere to the rough and irregular shape of BuddyStone, anchoring the plant for stability. BuddyStone doesn’t float when irrigated and can’t be compacted, which can damage roots. It can hold as much as 30% of its volume in water.

- Ideal for hydroponics, aquaponics, green roof gardens and more

    GROWSTONES REBORN
  

*by S***. on Reviewed in the United States on July 20, 2021*

I grow in hydroponics. Growstones were the best media ever but they went out of business. I was broken hearted until I found these. They are identical. Way better than hydroton which is made from strip mined clay these are from recycled glass. Will last forever and are much more porous and dont move around like clay balls.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Think feather-weight lava-rock
  

*by E***O on Reviewed in the United States on May 10, 2020*

Love these stones, but sadly they are becoming harder to find. I hope the company continues to make them. perfect size, strong, angular, very light weight, highly porous. I prefer these over the clay balls.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Great product
  

*by D***T on Reviewed in the United States on November 28, 2019*

I use this product in my orchid-growing mixes. It is lightweight but hold some water at the same time allowing air to filtrate through the mix. I am exceedingly disappointed that the company has gone out of business and this product will no longer be available.
