Cocopeat, also known as coir peat or coconut coir, is a 100% natural growing medium made from the fibrous husk of coconuts. It offers a sustainable alternative to traditional peat moss that is renewable and environmentally friendly.

What is Cocopeat?

Cocopeat is extracted from coconut husks which are a byproduct of the coconut industry. It is an abundant, renewable resource that would otherwise go to waste.

The coconut husks are ground and sieved to create a consistent, soil-like texture ideal for gardening. Cocopeat comes in the form of loose fiber or compressed bricks that expand when rehydrated.

It has excellent water retention abilities due to its strong capillary action. This allows cocopeat to hold up to 8-9 times its weight in water!

How to Use Coco peat in Your Garden

Coco peat is versatile and can be used in containers, raised beds, and in-ground gardens. Here are some tips for using it effectively:

  • For containers: Mix 1 part cocopeat with 1 part potting soil or compost.
    For in-ground use: Till 1-2 inches of cocopeat into the top 6-12 inches of soil.
    To start seeds: Create a seed starter mix with 1 part cocopeat and 1 part vermiculite.
    As a soil amendment: Add up to 25% cocopeat to improve moisture retention and aeration.
    For composting: Add cocopeat to your compost bin to balance out green and brown materials.

Always moisten the cocopeat thoroughly before use, as it is highly absorbent when dry. Rehydrate compressed bricks for several hours before mixing.
