Promotes Strong Plants
Watering Instructions:
Coir holds more water than any peat based medium. Adjust watering
accordingly by initially checking the weight of the pot. Coir may appear
dry on the surface but be sufficiently moist beneath.
Fertilizing Instructions:
Fertilize at the first watering. Increased fertilizer rates may be necessary
due to less frequent watering and excellent root growth.
For Potting:
Fill the pot very loosely with CocoTek SX and plant, minimizing
compression. Water well. Potting soil may be mixed with Coir at 1:2
ratio and used as a soil conditioner.
For Conditioning of Soil:
For every type of soil, environmentally friendly CocoTek SX is ideal as a
soil conditioner. It is very fibrous and will help break up clay soils,
giving porosity, drainage and aeration. In sandy soils, it will bond
together to retain moisture, and vital nutrients.
For Seed Germination:
Fill seed tray with CocoTek SX, level off, pack lightly, water well and
allow to drain. Sow seeds as required. Water sparingly.
For Mulching:
Ensure that the surface is free of weeds. Spread 5 – 7cm (2 – 3”) of
CocoTek SX which will inhibit the growth of weeds and retain moisture
in the soil. It will also protect the roots from frost during the winter and
scorching sun during the summer. During the winter, perennials can be
protected from severe weather by a mulch of 2.5 – 5cm (1 – 2”). Work
this into the surrounding soil in the spring.
Ingredients:
• Each coconut tree yields an average of 70-100
nuts per year
• Almost all parts of the coconut are used for food or
industrial purposes making coco an ideal
renewable resource.
• Coco has an ideal pH range of 6.0-6.8.
• High lignin and cellulose content
• Reduces watering frequency without plant stress
• High water holding capacity while maintaining
excellent drainage and aeration.
• Coco coir is odorless, pleasant to handle, and
uniform in composition.
• Coir has a high cation exchange, meaning it can
store unused minerals to be released to the
plant as and when it requires it.
Benefits of Coco
CocoTek Premium Coir is a sustainable alternative to peat moss that is
quickly and easily renewable. It does not produce the same environmental
damage caused by peat mining. CocoTek Premium Coir is easier to hydrate
and lasts longer in soil than peat moss. CocoTek Premium Coir is also
naturally free of bacteria, plant disease, fungal spores, weeds, seeds, and
pathogens making it a superior growing media.
CocoTek Premium Coir is an ideal medium for encouraging roots to
develop to their full potential due to its high levels of aeration and
remarkable drainage properties. Its high buffer capacity also assures that
CocoTek Premium Coir will hold and release nutrients over extended
periods of time, optimizing plant growth.

Solutions for Gardeners
™
The pumice used in CocoTek SX is suitable for all indoor and outdoor
plants. Pumice is lightweight, porous and super absorbent. It can take up
more than its own weight in water and nutrients, which are then slowly
released back to the plant's roots. The pumice in CocoTek SX leads to
improved aeration, capillary action, and helps minimize root rot problems.
