Coir is known by many different names including coco, coco coir, cocopeat, coco peat, coir fibre, coconut husks and coconut fibre.  Coir is ideal for a multitude of different uses.  It can be used as a base for homemade composts or added to aerate garden waste composts and its great at improving tired soils in a border or improving the structure of clay soils by adding humus.

TIPS

Coir can be used for seeds and cuttings as long as they are potted up once established or provided with extra nutrients. Coir is a naturally inert material so perfect as a base to build on. Check out our recipes in our fertiliser section to add the correct levels of nutrients or experiment mixing our coir with your own homemade compost.

Use approx 15 Litres of water per bale to rehydrate.
