Coconut Fibers
Coconut fibers, also called coir, is the material that remains after the fibers of the outer coconut shell are removed. This is a 100% nutrient and flowering medium.
Coconut fibers are colonized with Trichoderma-bacteria, which protect the roots and stimulate the root growth. Thanks to their perfect air-water-conditions, it is extremely difficult to overwater coir. Plant roots can flourish excellent in this environment.
Coir shows a high cation exchange, which means that it is able to save not used minerals and release them when the plants need them. Coir appears in different forms, but mostly as coconut-turf, whose look and texture resembles the soil, but does not contain minerals.
