Coir is the fibrous material found between the hard, internal shell and the outer coat of a coconut. Coco coir possesses excellent aeration properties, which are important for a soilless growing medium. When it is added to the soil, it creates small air pockets that provide roots with access to air, water, and essential nutrients. In doing so, the air pockets promote stronger root growth and better health overall and, therefore, more vibrant plants. Not only this, but air pockets created by coco coir are also responsible for promoting proper water drainage. The plant root may drown if a plant cannot drain properly, resulting in soil erosion or soil compaction. Benefits Water RetentionOne of the main reasons why coconut coir makes for such a great growing medium is its natural ability to retain moisture for long periods of time. There are other planting products that do an equally good job at retaining water, however, what makes coconut husk-based products so unique is that the natural fibers are able to retain moisture without suffocating plants. AerationFibrous coconut coir expands in such a way that it allows for great aeration for the roots of your plants. Some planting materials tend to become too compact around plants, causing them to suffocate over time. However, coconut husk products allow oxygen to flow freely around plant roots, which help maintain the health of your plants, ultimately allowing them to grow larger, faster. SustainableThere are many growing mediums on the market that are simply not eco-friendly. However, coconut husk products are a smart choice if you’re looking to limit your environmental impact. That’s because coconuts are an easily renewable resource. In fact, a single coconut tree is able to produce upwards of one hundred and fifty coconuts per year. That means that producers of coconut coir products can rely on a constant supply of raw materials each year. Plus, coconut trees typically do not require the use of pesticides and other chemicals to maintain their health. When you purchase coconut-based products you can rest easy knowing that you’re making an environmentally responsible choice. Naturally pH BalancedAs you begin to delve into more advanced gardening techniques, you will probably start looking at monitoring the acidity level of your soil and growing mediums. Certain plants are very sensitive to changes in the pH levels of their soil. Some growing mediums that you purchase off the shelf at your local landscaping supply store may be far too acidic for your plants. If the pH of your soil isn’t at the optimum level, your plant may fail to thrive or even die, no matter how much care you take to water and fertilize it. However, this is not a concern with you use coconut coir as your planting medium. That’s because coco coir has a natural pH of about 5.2 to 6.8. This is nearly neutral on the pH scale, making it ideal for lots of plants without the need for additives. Nutrient DensityThere are many vital nutrients that are naturally found in coconut byproducts. These include potassium, iron, manganese, copper, and zinc. These nutrients are very beneficial plants. One of the great things about coconut coir is that it releases these nutrients very slowly, so it will feed your plants on an ongoing basis over time. What’s more, coconut coir is also rich in natural hormones that act as bio-stimulants, encouraging your plants to flourish. Beneficial BacteriaYou may think of bacteria as a bad thing, however, certain types of bacteria are beneficial to plants. Coconut coir has been proven to promote the growth of lignins, increasing the among of beneficial bacteria around your plant’s root systems. This beneficial bacterium serves to combat harmful bacteria that may harm your plants. This is one reason why coconut coir is so popular amongst hydroponic growers. Cost EffectiveBecause coconut husk products take a very long time to break down and release their beneficial nutrients slowly, gardeners can go a long time without replacing their growing medium. In addition, coconut coir’s natural ability to retain moisture will help you save on your water bill. Compared to other growing mediums, coconut coir products are not the most expensive but are also not the least. However, these are moderately-priced products. Potting Medium Coconut coir is a wonderful growing medium for hydroponic applications, container gardens, and pots. Coco coir is also great for indoor plants, especially for soiless planting. Coconut husk-based products can be purchased in ready-to-use bags, or in breaks that expand when soaked in water. Ground Cover Coconut coir mulch or coco chips are great for use outdoors as ground cover. Coco products do a great job of retaining moisture and surpassing the growth of weeds. In addition, your shrubs and other outdoor plants will benefit from the additional nutrients that are released from your coconut coir ground cover. ~ Made in Sri Lanka ~ Shipping Please check your shipping address before checkout and we are sending goods to your eBay registered address.Item will be ship within agreed handling time after we receive the paymentDelivery Time depends on destination and other factors.
