bio365 BIOLITE | 1.5cu ft - Bag - Coarse Coir, Fine Coir & Coarse Perlite

High-Porosity Coco Blend for Aggressive Feeding, 1.5cu ft

Growers who feed and water on a tight, frequent schedule need a substrate that moves excess water through quickly, since a standard coco-perlite blend can hold onto moisture longer than an aggressive feeding program wants. bio365 BIOLITE combines coarse and fine coco with three separate grades of perlite, engineered to deliver notably higher air-filled porosity than a typical 70/30 coco-perlite mix.

This 1.5cu ft bag ships pre-hydrated and ready to use, giving growers a low-water-holding, fast-draining substrate to build a frequent feeding schedule around without added overwatering risk.

Key Features & Benefits

• High air-filled porosity — noticeably more aeration than a typical 70/30 coco-perlite blend.
• Three grades of perlite — combined with coarse and fine coco to fine-tune drainage rather than relying on a single perlite size.
• Built for frequent feeding — the low water-holding capacity supports aggressive watering schedules without waterlogging.
• Pre-hydrated and ready to use — ships stable in pH and EC, ready to fill containers immediately.

Who Should Use BIOLITE

Growers who water and feed frequently and want maximized aeration without added overwatering risk will find BIOLITE suited to that feeding style.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is BIOLITE's N-P-K analysis?

BIOLITE carries a guaranteed analysis of 0.20-0.06-0.28, a light starter charge intended to be built on with an active fertigation program rather than serve as complete nutrition. That light charge is a deliberate choice for growers who want to control their own feeding program.

Is BIOLITE suited to frequent watering?

Yes, it is specifically designed for frequent watering and feeding protocols, with three grades of perlite added to coarse and fine coco to keep aeration high even under a tight irrigation schedule. That extra air-filled porosity helps guard against the waterlogging a standard coco blend can suffer under the same schedule.

How does BIOLITE compare to BIOCOCO?

BIOLITE is tuned for frequent, aggressive feeding schedules with lower water-holding capacity, while BIOCOCO supports a wider range of irrigation strategies, including less frequent watering. Growers choose between them based on how often they plan to feed.

Is BIOLITE ready to use right out of the bag?

Yes, it is pre-hydrated and ready to use immediately, with a stable pH and low EC so it does not need a separate buffering step before planting. Growers can fill containers straight from the bag without a soak or rinse cycle first.

How is BIOLITE manufactured?

It is produced on computer-controlled equipment in bio365's own indoor, controlled-environment facilities, which keeps the ratio of coco to perlite consistent from bag to bag. That consistency matters for growers who need the same drainage behavior every time they order a new bag.
