How to use coco peat block?
- Hydrate the Block: Coco peat blocks need to be rehydrated before use. Place the block in a large container and add water. A typical 5 kg block can expand to approximately 60-70 liters of moist coco peat.
- Break Up the Expanded Coco Peat: Once the block has absorbed water and expanded, break it up with your hands or a garden tool to create a loose, fluffy medium.
- Mix with Other Media (if needed): Depending on the plants you are growing, you might want to mix the coco peat with soil, perlite, vermiculite, or compost to create a custom growing mix.
- Fill Containers: Use the prepared coco peat mix to fill pots, grow bags, or garden beds.
- Planting: Plant seeds or transplants as you would in regular soil.
- Watering: Monitor the moisture level and water as needed. Coco peat retains moisture well, so it may require less frequent watering compared to soil.

- Seed Starting: Ideal for germinating seeds due to its fine texture and water retention properties.
- Hydroponics: Commonly used as a medium in hydroponic systems.
