Description
Coco peat, also known as coir peat or coconut coir, is a natural byproduct derived from the processing of coconut husks. It is a renewable and sustainable alternative to traditional peat moss, often used in gardening, horticulture, and agriculture.
Growing Medium: Coco peat is widely used as a growing medium or soilless substrate for growing plants in containers, raised beds, and hydroponic systems. It has excellent water retention properties, holding up to 8-10 times its weight in water, while also providing good aeration and drainage for plant roots.
Soil Amendment: Coco peat can be mixed with garden soil or other growing media to improve soil structure, water retention, and nutrient availability. It helps loosen compacted soils, increase moisture retention in sandy soils, and enhance drainage in clay soils, making it suitable for a wide range of soil types and plant species.
Seed Starting: Coco peat is ideal for starting seeds and propagating cuttings due to its light texture and ability to retain moisture. It provides a sterile and weed-free environment for seed germination, while also promoting healthy root development and reducing transplant shock.
Potting Mix Component: Coco peat is often used as a component of potting mixes and growing media for container plants, both indoors and outdoors. It helps maintain a consistent moisture level in pots and containers, reducing the frequency of watering and the risk of overwatering or underwater

Coco peat brick is also known as coir pith or coir dust, it’s made from coconut husks. Coco peat primarily consists of the coir fiber pith or coir dust which is obtained by processing coconut husk and removing the long fibers.
Planet Coco’s peat brick is low in EC and have very low salt content. Our Coco peat is aged and composted for over 18 months and thorough washed. Our one liter brick can be expanded up to 8 liters by adding 2 liters of water. 650 Bricks are a perfect size to handle and it’s the perfect size for home gardeners.
Usage
Environmentally-friendly & sustainable organic alternative to peat moss.
Used in greenhouses, vertical gardens, landscaping & grow bags.
Coco peat, also known as coir pith, is the fibrous material that is obtained from the outer husk of coconut shells. It is increasingly being used as a growing medium in horticulture and agriculture due to its many beneficial properties.
Coco peat is high in nutrients and organic matter, improves soil structure, water retention, and provides aeration to the soil so it is widely used for Soil amendment, Seed starting, Hydroponics, Potting mix and Animal bedding.
coco coir chips or husk chips used as the growing medium for plants that need high air porosity.
Grade : Low ec and High Ec
Quality : S, SS and SSS sizes and crushed chips.
Coco coir husk chips, an organic and natural mulch are made from coconut shells (husk) making them a highly sustainable alternative to other mulch options. The durable coconut fiber husk-chips can withstand inclement weather and break down at a more measured and even rate than other bark chips.
High-quality coco coir chips absorb water and retain it, slowly releasing over time. Husks cut into chunks, the coco husk chips allow for better aeration and water flow to plants and are ideal for soilless plants like orchids and as landscaping mulch. Commonly mixed with coco coir growing medium to provide better aeration for plants.
Our Coir Discs is developed using optimum quality coir pith and are specifically used to control the weeds from plant container and landscape plants. It has high water absorption capacity thus water can be saved by reducing evaporation from the soil media. Moreover, the coconut coir pith & coco coir peat Round Discs gives a rehydrated yield of one litre of soil per disk.
Coco discs consist of coarse coco material, which is made of the husk of the coconut. Cutting the husk creates an airy, easily manageable and powerful growing medium with good drainage properties. These discs are compressed for transport and expand to their original size after water is added.
Coco peat is a natural, sustainable, and biodegradable growing medium made from coconut husks, primarily used in horticulture and agriculture. It's a versatile material used for seed germination, rooting, hydroponics, and soil improvement.
Detailed Description:
Origin:
Coco peat is the non-fibrous, spongy part of the coconut husk, a by-product of coconut fiber extraction.
Processing:
It undergoes a series of processes including washing, drying, sieving, and grading to ensure quality and suitability for different applications.
Forms:
Coco peat is available in various forms, including loose dust, pressed bricks, and briquettes, catering to different needs and preferences.
Properties:
It is lightweight, porous, and has a high water-holding capacity, making it ideal for promoting root growth and plant health.
Benefits:
Sustainable and Biodegradable: Coco peat is a natural and renewable resource that decomposes in the environment.
Excellent Water Retention: It can absorb and retain water, ensuring plants have access to adequate moisture.
Good Aeration: The porous structure allows for proper aeration of roots, promoting healthy growth.
