Made from the husks of coconuts, coir compost is one of the most environmentally friendly composts you can buy. When it comes to this hairy fruit, nothing goes to waste. The white centre is used for food or cosmetics, the long fibres of the husk are turned into ropes, brushes or matting and the shorter fibres are used for compost. These fibres are collectively called coir. It’s washed and buffered, using the industry’s first state-of-the-art wastewater recycling facility, to remove unwanted salts that occur naturally. After production, the coir compost is compressed to the correct size and packaged. All the grower needs to do on receipt is add water and start planting. Our coir compost has been dehydrated, compressed and packaged. All the grower needs to do on receipt is add water and start planting. It’s as easy as that. Our coir will improve drainage, air circulation and water retention, helping create a perfect environment to encourage healthy root growth. The fibres have a high cation exchange capacity, meaning they absorb, store and release nutrients very effectively, reducing nutrient leaching and helping your plant absorb plant food more efficiently.The coir fibres are specially graded, washed and buffered, using a waste water recycling facility, giving your plant a neutral, safe, gentle soil to grow in.
