Coco Peat:

Cocopeat is natural fiber made out of coconut husks. The extraction of coconut fiber from husks gives us this byproduct called cocopeat, which is a 100% natural growing medium. This cocopeat dried in the natural sun, processed to produce different items namely cocopeat block, cocopeat briquettes, cocopeat tablets, etc.

Loose coco peat is often referred as coco soil. Coco soil being a porous and well-drained medium, helps the plant to have strong roots, thus making it an excellent growing medium for hydroponics.

Properties of Coco Peat:

• It is light, easy to handle and can even reuse for up to 4 years.
• The physical and biochemical properties of cocopeat make it resistant to bacterial and fungal growth.
• Cocopeat disintegrates slowly. It only begins to break down when it is ten years old, thus providing long-term benefits.
