Coco Peat 5kg Block

“Coir” is a soil type growing media that comes from coconuts, specifically the husk. The story of coir and how it was discovered as a growing media dates back to 1940 when a soil scientist, EP Hume, noted that dust created from extracting long fibres from the coconut husk, had properties similar to peat moss.

Today, coir is increasingly used worldwide as a preferred growing media for large scale greenhouse cultivation of food, and ornamental plants.

Buffered Coco Peat Block

Coco Peat (without Buffering) comes with no inherent nutritional value and many of the coco coir particles are filled with Potassium (K) and Sodium (Na) which both have a single charge. Double positive elements such as Calcium (Ca) and Magnesium (Mg) have a stronger affinity to these sites, and will replace potassium and sodium.

This can cause a Nutrient imbalance in some crops when the calcium and magnesium intended for the plant use is instead captured by the inert medium and in turn releases the displaced potassium and sodium.
