Coco Earth’s consistent coir substrate properties are ideal in Hydroponics, including recirculating and free drain systems. The high lignin content of Coco Earth makes it highly resistant to breakdown and hence resists change over time. The natural fungicidal properties of Coco Earth are effective in greatly reducing the incidence of root diseases. Electrical conductivity and pH consistency are easily achieved with Coco Earth. Even under adverse climatic conditions root health is maintained. It is essential that a complete and balanced nutrient like CX Horticulture Coco Base are used in conjunction with this Coco Earth blend.
Features of Coco Earth
-
✓ Coco Earth is triple washed and buffered with Calmag - calcium and magnesium, we recommend you always use a nutrient designed for Coco coir, the CX Horticulture Coco Base is an excellent compatible choice

-
✓ Low Salinity: Coco Earth is low in salts, which can be harmful to plant roots. This low salinity makes it an excellent choice for sensitive plants and for growers who want more control over nutrient levels.
-
✓ Great Aeration: Despite its water retentive qualities, Coco Earth also provides good aeration to plant roots. It allows for the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the root zone, promoting healthy root development.
-
✓ Moisture Retention: Coco peat has a high water holding capacity. Coco Earth allows for consistent moisture levels in the substrate while reducing the risk of overwatering and root rot - disease
-
✓ Nutrient Retention: Coco peat can hold onto and release certain nutrients over time, improving nutrient retention.
-
✓ Light weight and consistent, Coco Earth is ideal as seed raising substrate, hydroponics, green walls and roof top gardens
-
✓ OMRI listed, OMRI certified means they meet standards for organic production and hydroponic cultivation and suitable for organic, sustainable horticulture. The certification ensures they are free from chemical additives and soil diseases, making it ideal for growing herbs, flowers, and fruits
