Additional Informations

Coconut peat is natural pith extracted from the husk of coconuts. Coco and peat moss are widely used in potting mixes, but peat moss can be harmful to the environment. The coco fibers retain a high percentage of water just like a sponge. The coco brick is a product that is used for gardening and horticulture and can be used as an alternative or addition to soil. Cocopeat is made to absorb water, expand its volume and become suitable for the growth of plants.
