Organic agro coco coir peat is the binding material that comes from the fiber fraction of the coconut husk. A very special grade of coir dust is washed, screened and graded suitable for horticultural and agricultural applications. Organic agro coco coir peat is a multi-purpose soil conditioner and growing medium. It is consistent and uniform in texture. It is a completely homogenous material composed of millions of capillary micro-sponges, that absorb and hold up to eight times it's own weight in water. The natural ph of 5.7 to 6.5, plus an unusually high action exchange capacity - and 27% of easily available water assures that coir will hold and release nutrients in solution over extended periods without re watering.
