The pressed coconut coir disc is obtained from the fibrous husk of the coconut. The husk is used in the fiber industry and the released coconut pith is a by-product.

The obtained coconut coir is washed, dried, sieved, and fertilized with NPK fertilizer and Calcium Nitrate.

The nutritional charge lasts about 2-3 weeks; after this period it is advisable to use a nutrient solution: it is possible to use the mineral fertilizer we offer.

Thanks to its fine structure and high air content, the coconut disc is the ideal substrate for home cultivation.

The coconut fiber has indeed been used for years in the professional sector thanks to its properties:
