Roots Organics CocoPalms Loose Coir, 1.5 cu ft

Naturally Buffered Coconut Husk Coir Growing Medium, 1.5 cu ft

Peat moss is mined from slow-forming bogs, and growers who want a more renewable base medium without giving up water-holding capacity often look to coconut byproducts instead. Roots Organics CocoPalms is made from coconut husk, naturally buffered, washed, and composted, with an enhanced fiber-to-dust ratio calculated for vigorous plant growth.

This 1.5 cu ft bag suits growers working with a handful of containers or testing CocoPalms before scaling up.

Who Should Use This

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the natural pH range?

It has a natural pH of 5.2-6.3, suited for optimum nutrient uptake. That range applies to the medium straight out of the bag.

What is CocoPalms made from?

It's made from naturally buffered, washed, and composted coconut husk. The fiber-to-dust ratio is enhanced compared to a raw coconut husk product, which is calculated to support vigorous plant growth.

How do I use CocoPalms, straight or blended into a mix?

It can be used straight as a standalone growing medium or blended at a higher percentage into an existing soil or soilless mix. Its natural buffering is meant to make it usable either way without a separate pH adjustment step.

Why choose coconut husk over peat moss?

Coconut husk is a more renewable base medium than peat moss, which is mined from slow-forming bogs. CocoPalms is processed to retain water-holding capacity comparable to what growers expect from a peat-based medium.

What sizes are available?

CocoPalms is available in a 1.5 cu ft bag and a 2 cu yd tote for larger-scale use. The tote holds enough medium for a commercial operation filling many containers from one delivery.
