Coco Peat Blocks, PH Range : 5.5-6.5 pH

Cocopeat is a natural fibre made out of coconut husks. The extraction of the coconut fibre from husks gives us this by-product called cocopeat. Cocopeat is a 100% natural growing medium. This cocopeat dried in the natural sun, are processed to produce different items namely cocopeat block, cocopeat briquettes, cocopeat tablets etc. This makes an excellent growing medium for hydrophonics or container plant growing. Clean coir has natural rooting hormones and anti-fungal properties.

The various usages of cocopeat is given below :- How does Coco Peat do this?

• The properties of Coco Peat make it resistant to bacterial and fungal growth.
• Coco Peat holds water rather than shedding it like traditional peat does! It holds 8-9 times it's weight in water.
• Coco Peat has the ability to store and release nutrient to plants for extended periods of time. It also has great oxygenation properties which is important for healthy root development.
• It has a pH of 5.2-6.8 which is neutral to slightly acidic. This makes it great for alkaline garden soils.
• Easy to use! Just put your compressed Coco Peat brick in a container, add 4 quarts of warm water and let it sit until the water is absorbed, fluff it up and you are ready to use Coco Peat!
• Coco Peat can even be reused for up to 4 years!
• It makes a great bedding material for worm bins! It's actually good for them and increases worm growth by 25%.
• Coco Peat is very slow to disintegrate; it only begins to break down when it is 10 years old, long term benefits.
• It is very light and easy to handle.
• It can be combined with any of the normal ingredients and use as a mixer or a stand-alone product.
• An affordable price for a quality product with an environmentally sustainable future.

What is cocopeat ?

Coco peat is a multi purpose growing medium that is very easy to use. Its high air filled porosity and high water holding capacity makes it the ideal medium for all plant growing applications. Coco peat compressed briquettes and bales. Moreover, Coco peat is an excellent substrate for vegetable, fruit and cut flower crops. It has many applications as an effective soil conditioner and soil-freesubstrate. Coco peat has innumerable advantages in the agricultural and domestic gardening. Some of them are in potting mix, horticulture cultivation, nursery beds for seedlings, in gardens to conserve water, orchids, mushroom cultivation, plantation crops etc. The main advantage is that the valuable nitrogen is preserved in coco peat and moisture content is retained mainly in potting mix in home gardenin

What the differences are between washed, unwashed and buffered cocopeat?

Unwashed cocopeat is the natural raw form of the product, which has a higher EC level. Washed cocopeat has been washed using clean, natural spring water to lower the EC level. Buffered cocopeat (sometimes known as treated) has been treated to reduce the Potassium and Sodium Chloride levels, and to increase the Nitrogen level. It also has a lower EC level.

Can cocopeat be re-used?

As long as there is no contamination, cocopeat can be re-used for several crop cycles, depending on the plant requirements and the grower’s needs and preferences. We recommend flushing the coir between cycles and may be replenished with additional quantity if required.

What is the difference between your Cocopeat and others available on the market?

Our Cocopeat comes from inland grown coconuts which have a naturally low level of salt present. Furthermore our product is processed by aging and finally washed to obtain a very low e.c. Every step of the process is carefully controlled. Other Cocopeats is usually not subject to these processes and can come from uncertain conditions, such as coastal grown coconuts, substandard storage and processing and with that the possibility of introduction of unwanted pathogens. We offer the highest quality Cocopeat every time. Please ask for a sample so you can perform an independent laboratory analysis.

How easy are the blocks to break apart, and what is the recommended procedure?

Because cocopeat is natural, it is completely biodegradable. However, it retains its structure and absorbency for several years after planting, which means that the same coir can and is frequently used for several years. After use, it can be added to the ground as a soil conditioner without any adverse implications for the environment. it can be simply layed on plastic or concrete and irrigated with a sprinkler system.
