Coco Peat Bucket for Seed Germination / Potting Media

Coco peat (cocopeat), 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. Cocopeat primarily consists of the coir fibre pith or coir dust which is obtained by processing coconut husk and removing the long fibres. The cocopeat which is obtained can hold large quantities of water, just like a sponge. It is used as a replacement for traditional peat in soil mixtures, or, as a soil-less substrate for plant cultivation.

Advantages of using Cocopeat

Produce seedlings with stronger more fibrous roots

It's lightweight, high Water Holding Capacity and high Air Filled Porosity is advantageous for producing seedlings with strong and fibrous roots.

Higher germination rates

Its the ability to re-wet easily makes it the perfect medium to use in seedling trays and tubes. Germination rates are very high when seedlings are grown in mixes containing Cocopeat (Galuku Coir).

Easily re-wets

Cocopeat is the ideal medium for all seed raising applications. Unlike sphagnum peat, Cocopeat has the ability to re-wet very easily. This makes it the perfect medium to use in plug and cell production for vegetable and flower seed raising, and for tube stock production of outdoor seedlings.

Coco Peat for Seed Germination / Potting Media comes as a loose, uncompressed powder.
