Hydroponics

Washed, buffered, low-EC coir grow bags and slabs engineered for precise hydroponic fertigation.

Why coir for hydroponics

The right root zone for hydroponics

Hydroponic systems demand a substrate that gives the grower complete control. Extra-washed, buffered coir delivers a low, stable EC and an engineered air-water balance, so your feed — not the substrate — sets the root-zone chemistry under high-frequency fertigation.

  • Extra-washed, low-EC for clean control
  • Engineered air-water balance
  • Consistent slabs and grow bags
  • Buffered for precise nutrition

Grower challenges

What makes it hard

  • Substrate EC interfering with precise nutrition
  • Keeping oxygen high under frequent fertigation
  • Run-to-run consistency across the operation
Root-zone requirements

What the crop needs

  • Low, stable EC so your feed sets the EC
  • High air-filled porosity for oxygenation
  • Uniform, repeatable structure

FAQ

Hydroponics — common questions

Is coco coir good for hydroponics?

Yes — washed, buffered coir is a leading hydroponic substrate, giving excellent air-water balance with full nutrition control.

Should I use extra-washed coir for hydroponics?

For high-value hydroponic crops, extra-washed grades target the lowest EC for the cleanest nutrition control.
