Product Description

Coco peat acts as a biological control against plant pathogenic fungi. Coir fibre pith or coir dust can hold large quantities of water, just like a sponge. It is used as a replacement for traditional peat in soil mixtures or as a soil-less substrate for plant cultivation.
These Bales consist of lesser compressed & easy to loosen up Coco material which can be used for multiple applications depending on the growing requirement. These bales can be made with different mixtures by increasing or decreasing the percentage of Coir Fiber presence in the mix . We can also add Coco Chips or Coco Crushed material if required to these bale mixtures.
