 | | Coir (coconut husk) is an effective alternative to peat
when starting plants. Coir containers have fibrous walls
that absorb and retain water readily, allow air and water
transfer for healthy root growth, and promote air pruning
of roots. Planting them directly in the garden saves time,
avoids mess and prevents transplant shock; once planted,
roots penetrate easily, so plants become established
quickly.
We offer coir grow strips (one-piece units of multiple
square cells), as
well as round coir pots, 3" in top diameter. Grow strips make efficient use of space, and
you can carry several seedlings at one time (use scissors
to separate cells for planting). Eight-cell grow strips
measure about 5" x 10", with 2-1/4" square cells. Ten-cell
strips measure 4" x 9-3/4", with 1-3/4" square cells. Either
strips or pots can be used to start seedlings or root
cuttings; choose the larger containers for faster-growing
plants. |
