Coco Husk Chips
Coconut husk is the outer layer of coconut fruit, which contains long fibers and sponge-like pith particles. Coco husk chips are made by cutting dried coconut husks into small cubic shaped pieces. Coconut husk chips can be added to coir peat to increase air permeability and water holding capacity. The husk chips are byproducts derived from coconut husks, so they are completely natural.
The main purpose of using coco husk block is to maintain the moisture content and the release of essential soil nutrients so that the plants have sufficient nutrients for healthy growth. It also has excellent drainage, nutrient holding capacity and fungi resistant.
