Coconut Block
Coco blocks are an eco-friendly alternative to peat for giving new plantings the best possible start, whether in the garden or in pots. The 4 coco blocks are mixed with water to produce around 40 litres of potting soil. Coco fibres make an excellent soil and compost conditioner.
Benefits of the coco block:
- Lightweight and compact to store
- Quick and easy to use, just add water
- Improves soil and compost
- Eco-friendly alternative to peat
- Made from fair-trade coco by-products
Coco blocks should be stored in a cool, dry place. Mix them with the amount of water indicated on the packet, according to your needs. They will quickly be ready to use. If you don't use all the blocks at once, reseal the packaging well.
- Put the coco block in a large container.
- Add 1 l of water and wait for the volume to increase considerably.
- Add a further 2 l of water and let it swell completely.
- Loosen well and use.
Coco substrate does not contain fertilizer, so you should start fertilizing soon after planting, for example with a solid or liquid fertilizer for flowers and ornamental plants, or an all-purpose fertilizer.
