Cocopeat, also known as coir pith or coco coir, is a natural, eco-friendly growing medium made from coconut husk fibers. It is lightweight, retains water well, and is ideal for gardening.

Excellent water retention.

Improves soil aeration and drainage.

Eco-friendly and sustainable.

Helps retain nutrients for longer.

Suitable for a wide range of plants, including vegetables, herbs, and flowers.

Take the compressed cocopeat block.

Place it in a large container or tub.

Add water gradually and let it expand (usually 4-5 liters of water per kg of cocopeat).

Mix well to get a soft, fluffy texture.

Use it as a soil substitute or mix it with garden soil, compost, or fertilizers in a 1:1 ratio for better results.

Yes, cocopeat works well for most plants, including vegetables, flowers, herbs, and even seedlings. It’s especially useful in terrace gardening and hydroponic setups.

Cocopeat retains water well, so you need to water less frequently compared to traditional soil. Check the moisture level with your finger—if it feels dry, water the plant.

Yes, cocopeat can be reused. After removing the plants, wash and dry the cocopeat to remove any salts or residues. It can then be rehydrated and mixed with compost for reuse.

Cocopeat is low in nutrients, so it’s recommended to add organic compost or a diluted fertilizer solution once the seeds germinate and seedlings develop.

Sow seeds in seed trays or small pots filled with cocopeat or potting mix.

Cover seeds with a thin layer of soil (about 0.5 cm deep).

Water gently and keep in a warm, shaded area until germination.
