Moisture retention and drainage: Coir Peat dust has excellent moisture retention properties, while coconut fibers are known for their good drainage. Coir husk particles represent a perfect combination of these two qualities.

Decomposition: Coco Peat dust and related products can decompose naturally in the soil within a period of 6 months to 2-3 years, depending on the specific type.

4. Characteristics of Processed Coco Peat

Processed coco peat is produced from 100% natural coconut fiber. Coconut shells are collected, separated from the fiber, and then crushed to create pure coco peat without impurities. Coconut peat is an environmentally friendly organic pressed coco peat product because it is completely natural in origin.

4.1 Washed to Remove Tannins and Treated to Break Down Lignin

Tannin, which has an astringent taste, and Lignin are two natural components found in raw coconut coir dust. These substances can cause airflow blockages within the soil or growing medium, leading to restricted aeration for plant roots.

4.2 Good Moisture Retention

Coir Pith dust has a strong ability to retain water and maintain optimal soil temperature, thereby increasing the moisture levels in the soil. This excellent moisture retention is crucial for helping seeds and seedlings germinate quickly, grow healthily, and develop a strong and resilient root system. By keeping the soil consistently moist and warm, coir peat dust promotes faster sprouting and robust plant growth.

6. Advantages of 5kg Coco Peat Briquettes

The 5kg coconut peat briquettes offer many outstanding benefits compared to regular coconut fibers and coir dust. Firstly, for soil improvement, these briquettes help rejuvenate worn-out or degraded soil, increasing its fertility, making it loose and airy, which enhances plant growth.

For plants, the briquettes have excellent water retention capabilities, reducing nutrient leaching and promoting healthy, robust root development. They are ideal as a planting medium, for seedling propagation, grafting, or cuttings, thanks to their high moisture-holding ability and their role in stimulating root growth.

7. Detailed Instructions for Using 5kg Coco Peat Compression Blocks

The 5kg coco peat compression blocks can be used immediately after purchase. Simply follow these easy steps:

  • Prepare a large tray or a bucket with about 40 liters of water.
  • Soak the compression block in the water until fully absorbed.
  • Wait approximately 15 minutes, then gently squeeze by hand to loosen the coco peat and break it apart. This process will yield approximately 20-25kg of clean, loose coco peat.
  • Use the coco peat for planting clean vegetables, sprouts, soil improvement for orchids, ornamental plants, or melon and cucumber cultivation.

Note:

  • For planting vegetables or climbing plants, you can directly use 100% of the expanded coco peat for planting or seed sowing.
  • For ornamental or larger plants, it is recommended to mix the expanded coco peat with soil before planting for better growth and stability.
