COCO Pith
A spongy material that binds the coconut fibre in the husk, coir pith is finding new applications. It is an excellent soil conditioner and is being extensively used as a soil-less medium for agri-horticultural purposes. With its moisture retention qualities, coir pith is ideal for growing anthuriums and orchids.
Cocopith is an excellent growing medium for home & lawn garden plants. It is widely used with potted plants & also it is one of the best media for seed germination. It improves aeration in the soil for optimal root growth while maintaining the ideal nutrient availability for plants. Difference between Coco peat and Coco pith : Coco peat (It is also known as Coco pith) is made from the husks of coconuts, while coco coir is made from the fibers of coconuts. Drainage and aeration: Coco peat is more absorbent than coco coir and holds more water, making it better for plants that need more water.
