Improves Soil Structure & Aeration - Organic Coco Chips promote soil aeration and drainage, creating air pockets that prevent soil compaction and allow oxygen to reach plant roots more efficiently. As coco fiber breaks down, it adds organic matter to planting soil, improving overall soil fertility in potting mixes and seed starting mixes.
Excellent Water Retention - Coconut husk chips can absorb up to 10x their weight in water, making them perfect for retaining moisture and keeping your plants hydrated. Using coco chips for plants helps reduce watering frequency, so you can conserve more water and contribute to more sustainable gardening practices.
Increases Nutrient Availability - Coconut fiber substrate has a high cation exchange capacity (CEC) to retain essential nutrients, plus a neutral pH to help prevent nutrient lock-up. This ensures nutrients remain available in the root zone, allowing for more efficient nutrient uptake in plant roots.
Natural Soil Amendment for Plants & Gardening - Coco Chips are a sustainable and cost-effective alternative to traditional fiber mulch, making them perfect for indoor plants, outdoor plants, garden containers, hydroponics, and as a mulch medium for garden beds. We also recommend using Coco Chips for reptile bedding, terrarium bedding, or ground covering.
Sustainable Planting Material for Gardening - Bulk Coco Chips are created from renewable coconut husks that would otherwise be discarded. Coco husk chips for gardening are durable and can be reused, cutting down on the need to purchase costlier mulch materials. Additionally, they provide an attractive decorative element for planters and garden containers!
