What Is Coco Peat ?
Coco peat soil is made from the pith inside a coconut husk. It is naturally anti-fungal, making it an excellent choice to start seed but it is also used in rugs, ropes, brushes, and as stuffing. Coco peat gardening is also used as a soil amendment, potting mix, and in hydroponic production.
Coco coir is so environmentally friendly that it is reusable. You just need to rinse and strain it and it will work perfectly again. In a comparison of coco peat vs. soil, the peat retains much more water and releases it slowly to plant roots.
Types Of Coco Peat For Plants
You can use coir just like peat moss. It often comes pressed into bricks, which have to be soaked to break them apart. The product is also found ground into dust, which is called coir dust, and is used to grow many exotic plants such as ferns, bromeliads, anthurium, and orchids.
Coco fiber is the brick type and mixed with soil to create air pockets that bring oxygen to plant roots. Coconut chips are also available and hold water while aerating soil. Using a combination of these, you can tailor make the type of medium that each variety of plant requires
