Coco-Peat Powder (Pack Of 5Kgs)

Using coco peat powder in your gardening routine is quite straightforward. Here’s a basic guide on how to apply it:

1. Rehydration: Coco peat powder usually comes in a compressed and dehydrated form. Before use, you’ll need to rehydrate it. Simply mix the desired amount of powder with warm water in a ratio specified on the packaging. Allow it to absorb water and expand.
2. Mixing with Soil: Once the coco peat is fully rehydrated, you can mix it with your garden soil or potting mix. Blend it thoroughly to ensure an even distribution. The addition of coco peat helps improve soil structure, aeration, and water retention.
3. Potting Mix: For container gardening, you can create a customized potting mix by combining coco peat with other ingredients like perlite, vermiculite, and organic matter. This mix provides a well-balanced environment for plant growth.
4. Seed Starting: Coco peat is also excellent for starting seeds. Create a seed-starting mix by combining coco peat with perlite or sand. Fill seed trays or pots with this mixture and sow your seeds.
5. Mulching: Spread a layer of rehydrated coco peat around the base of your plants as mulch. This helps retain soil moisture, suppress weeds, and regulate temperature.
