GreenSpade Cocofibre
GreenSpade Cocofibre is a highly sustainable and eco-friendly gardening essential made from the husks of coconuts. This natural material is an excellent choice for gardeners looking for an environmentally conscious alternative to peat-based products. Known for its impressive water retention and excellent aeration properties, Cocofibre ensures that plant roots receive the necessary oxygen and moisture for healthy growth. Its versatility makes it ideal for both indoor and outdoor gardening projects. The natural fibres help retain moisture around plant roots, reducing the need for frequent watering, while its porous nature prevents waterlogging and encourages root expansion. Additionally, GreenSpade Cocofibre is biodegradable, making it a great choice for those aiming to reduce their environmental impact.
How to use:
To use GreenSpade Cocofibre, begin by soaking the compressed block in water for 10 to 15 minutes to allow it to expand. Once hydrated, fluff the Cocofibre and it’s ready to use. It can be added directly to plant pots or mixed with your existing soil to enhance its water retention and aeration. For best results, consider using it in combination with perlite or vermiculite for an optimal growing medium. You can also use it as a base for seed-starting trays or as a bedding material for delicate plants that need extra moisture.
Recommended plant:
GreenSpade Cocofibre is particularly suitable for plants that thrive in well-drained, moisture-retentive soil. It is excellent for succulents, cacti, orchids, and ferns, as well as tropical plants like peace lilies and begonias. Additionally, it’s perfect for growing herbs such as basil, thyme, and mint, which prefer consistently moist conditions without being waterlogged.
