Seedlings and potted plants

Coconut retains more water than any other substrate . Adjust watering to the needs of the plants. Coconut fibers may appear dry on the surface, although they are very moist deep down.

Coconut fiber + perlite can be used alone as a growing medium and for:

• Germination of seedlings of plants, flowers and vegetables. Fill a pot, level it, press it lightly, pour water, let it drain, and then sow the seed.

• Condition the soil, as its fibrous texture allows it to loosen clay soils by providing porosity, drainage and aeration. In sandy soils, it acts as a binding agent and helps maintain adequate moisture and nutrient levels.
