COCO BLOCK / FERTILISER / GARDEN / COCOPEAT BLOCK
Weight : 5 kg After Compress : 7 litre
Cocopeat can store and release nutrients to plants for extended periods of time. It has great oxygenation properties which are important for healthy root development. Cocopeat can be combined with any of the usual ingredients like soil and manure to be used as a mixture or a stand-alone product.
If you need to expand the whole block, immerse the block in a large tub capable of holding at least 25 litres of water. Remove the wet expanded cocopeat that floats in the water, while continuing to add water to the tub till the complete block is expanded.
How are Coco blocks made?
Husks are removed from the coconuts and then soaked in order to loosen and soften the fibers. They are then removed from the water and dried for up to a year. After drying, the fibers are sorted and processed. The fibers used to make coco coir bricks are finely chopped and then compressed.
Types of Coco Peat for Plants :-
You can use coir just like peat moss. It often comes pressed into bricks, which have to be soaked to break them apart. The product is also found ground into dust, which is called coir dust, and is used to grow many exotic plants such as ferns, bromeliads, anthurium, and orchids.
