Coco Peat: The Coconut Waste That Grows the World’s Vegetables
Walk into any modern greenhouse in the Netherlands, Spain or the Gulf, and the plants are probably not growing in soil. They’re growing in coco peat — the spongy pith of coconut husks, compressed in India and shipped worldwide as the growing media of choice for professional horticulture.
Why growers switched
Coco peat holds water like a sponge yet keeps roots aired, re-wets easily, and — unlike peat moss — is fully renewable. Hydroponic tomato, cucumber and berry farms standardise on it; nurseries and potting-mix makers buy it by the container.
Two grades, honest numbers
Washed Low-EC is the hydroponic standard — triple-washed to remove salts, tested for EC and pH per lot. Standard grade serves nurseries and soil conditioning at value pricing. Both ship as compressed 5 kg blocks, briquettes and grow bags that expand many times on wetting — container economics built in.
