Why Coco Peat Is Recommended For Soil Conditioning?

To grow healthy plants, soil has to provide water, nutrition and aeration when plants required. Fertile land is not always an available source to provide enough nutrition to plants. Sometimes soil does not have all the properties to support plants for faster and healthy growth. Soil which are rich in nutrition and minerals serves plants as better growing medium with all required nutrition taken from nature but soil conditioning create opportunity to produce more yield at short span.

Soil conditioning is a process of improving the physical properties of soil to support and enhance strong plant growth. Coco Peat as an organic and environment friendly product, it has superior advantage of holding water and nutrition. It also keeps soil loose, prevents soil getting hard and creates room for roots to breath and develop growth to its fullest form by aeration property.

Landscapers, golf green turf and sports field constructors deliver high quality and high performing results when use coco peat as organic mix to soil. Coco Peat works as right combination with soil and give uniformity in lawn growth as it maintain moisture for them. It does not require re wetting often since its good in water retention and good in cation-exchange.  

In coconut rich countries like India and Sri Lanka, people won't buy processed coco peat for their home gardens. It is usual practice to de husk coconut from their farms for their own use and they use husk, fibres and powder particles for their home gardens and kitchen gardens.

Hence, soil needs conditioning periodically and coco peat recommended as the right combination because of its physical properties and organic nature.

Go the ancient way,, Grow plants to its full potential, use coco peat with soil and achieve the results.
