Description

The advantages are well known in potting soil industry where coco peat is increasingly used in potting soil mixtures as crops grown on coco peat result in healthier plants. The high absorbance of water without losing its aerations values lead to a stable PH and lower fertilizer needs. Coco peat or coir peat or coco-pith or Ceylon coir fibre dust, is a by-product as accumulating piles of short coir fibre staples (2mm or less in size) and small husk particles called dust (pith) during the extraction process of long coir fibre from the coconut husk. The husk which grows around the hard coconut contains both fibres and fine material. After most of the fibre has been removed we are left with those fine materials which have been used for many years as a substrate called Coco peat or Coco-pith. Advantages of using Coco peat Coco peat has many positive properties. The most important advantages are; • Coco peat is **0% Natural, an organic Biodegradable matter. • Coco peat is an Eco-friendly renewable resource. • Coco peat is a viable alternative to peat moss. • Coco peat is a perfect multipurpose growing media. • Compressed coco peat blocks contents compressed lignocelluloses expands when watered, the right coco peat has high aeration. • Coco peat pith absorbs water easily but doesn’t absorb too much. • Coco peat is a very stable product that can be used for many years without decomposition affecting its physical make-up. • Coco peat can be treated. These are good reasons to contemplate using coco peat as a growth medium. Romakra International (Private) Limited delivers compressed coco peat blocks. The properties of these Coco peat blocks are; • Available in 4 or 5 kg bales, in **0 grams briquettes, and **0 grams disks • Output *4 – *5 litres per Kilogram. • Material perfectly suited as growing media for flower & vegetable cultivation as well as using in potting soil mixtures. • Moisture content less than *0 %. • Bales standard naked or i
