Coir 6MM

Coir is the fibrous material of the coconut fruit and is completely a homogenous material. The texture is consistent and uniform. It retains moisture well, as it is composed of millions of capillary micro-sponges that absorb and hold up to nine times its own weight in water.

Coco Coir is often used as a growing medium in hydroponic and soil-based cultivation of plants, including cannabis. Coco coir is an environmentally friendly alternative to peat moss, as it is a renewable resource and has a lower carbon footprint.

• Renewable resource: Coco coir is a by-product of the coconut industry, making it a renewable and sustainable resource compared to peat moss, which is harvested from bogs and marshes.

• Improved water retention: Coco coir has excellent water retention properties, allowing it to hold onto moisture and release it slowly to the roots of plants, providing consistent hydration.

• Improved air flow: Coco coir is a loose and airy growing medium, providing adequate space for roots to grow and allowing for adequate oxygen exchange, which is important for plant health.

• pH neutral: Coco coir is pH neutral, making it a suitable growing medium for a wide range of plants without the need for adjustment.

• Pathogen-free: Coco coir is free from pathogens and pests, reducing the risk of disease and pests in the grow setup.

• Convenient and easy to use: Coco coir bricks are compact and easy to store, and they can be easily hydrated and prepared for use, making them a convenient choice for growers.

• Versatile: Coco coir can be used in hydroponic systems or as a soil amendment, making it a versatile choice for growers with different growing setups.

• Natural and sustainable: Coco coir is made from the fibrous outer layer of coconut shells, making it a sustainable and renewable resource.

• Lightweight and easy to transport: Coco coir bricks are lightweight and easy to transport, making them ideal for growers who need to move their growing media around.

• Versatile: Coco coir can be used as a standalone growing medium, or as an amendment to soil, hydroponic, and aeroponic systems.

• High water-holding capacity: Coco coir has a high water-holding capacity, allowing it to retain moisture and provide a stable growing environment for plants.

• Excellent aeration: Coco coir has excellent aeration properties, allowing for proper root development and reducing the risk of disease and root rot.

• Low sodium content: Coco coir has a low sodium content, which makes it safe for use with sensitive plants and reduces the risk of salt build-up in the soil.

• pH neutral: Coco coir is pH neutral, making it easy to maintain the optimal pH range for plants.

• Good nutrient-holding capacity: Coco coir has a good nutrient-holding capacity, allowing it to retain and supply essential nutrients to plants.
