Coir is ideal for seeds and cuttings. It can be used as a base for homemade composts or added to aerate garden waste composts. Coir is known by many different names including coco, coco coir, cocopeat, coco peat, coir fibre, coconut husks and coconut fibre.
This small coir disc is designed to fill a cup or plant pot. Although only 3cm in diameter, just add 50ml of water to expand to 50-60ml of coir.
