Coco peat (coco peat), also known as coir pith. Coir Fibre pith, coir dust, or simply coir, is made from coconut husks, which are byproducts of other industries that use coconuts. Coco peat primarily consists of the coir Fibre pith or coir dust which is obtained by processing coconut husk and removing the long fibers.
How to Grow Plants in Coco Peat
Processed coconut fibers are the byproduct of the coconut industry which, without its usefulness to gardeners, would otherwise be disposed of. As a growing medium similar to sphagnum peat, coco peat, also called coir or coir dust, provides an alternative to potting soil featuring high water retention, suitable aeration and antifungal benefits. Coco peat is not only a natural, often organic product, but also a renewable one with a slightly acidic pH that many plants prefer to grow in.
Coco peat as a soil solution
Is there some magic ingredient that can prevent potted soil from getting hardened and caked up over time? An ingredient that can keep the soil loose, which in turn enables roots to spread out easily, enjoy more breathing space and aeration, and consequently achieve better plant growth? Well, the answer can be found in the humble coconut Fibre, which is now being processed and marketed as coco peat.
