Coir pith

There are different qualities of Coir pith. While the lower quality with high fiber content is used in the domestic market, Mr. Farmer brings to you two qualites of coir pith blocks.If you are into soil-based gardening, you can mix Coir pith into the soil and use it as a soil conditioner. It will improve moisture retention capabilities of soil and increase aeration. Also, because of neutral pH, it will improve the pH profile of the overall soil-coir pith mix.If using in soil-less gardening, mix Cocpeat with another media like Clay pebbles, Fly ash pebbles, coco-chips, wood shavings, or Gravel etc. This is required as Cocopeat, due to high water retention ratio, tends to compress over time leaving no or less room for Oxygen. This can also lead to high moisture in the root zone at times.Mixing Coir pith with Clay Pebbles or gravel gives you an ideal soil-less mix using which you can completely eliminate soil. Instructions for use: Place the coir pith block in a big container or tub. Add approx 25 L of water. Wait for 24 hrs and then mix it. Add more water if needed.
