Coco husk chips are small pieces of coconut husk that are used as a growing medium in hydroponic and soil-less gardening. They provide good aeration and moisture retention for plant roots and are a popular alternative to peat moss and soil in container gardens and indoor plants.
Coconut chips are often washed with fresh water to lower their sodium levels.
Coconut husk chips are a great alternative to bark, rock wool, and clay growing mediums, as they have a relatively neutral pH of between 5.2 and 6.8. They’re perfect for growing plants that thrive when their roots are moist but not saturated.
