Strawberries
Open-top coco bags and buffered, low-EC coir for clean, high-quality strawberry production.
The right root zone for strawberries
Substrate-grown strawberries reward a light, free-draining, low-EC root zone. Open-top coco bags and buffered coir give consistent runners, healthy crowns and easy crop management on tabletops and gutters.
- Free-draining, airy structure
- Low, stable EC for clean nutrition
- Even moisture for uniform fruiting
- Open surface for easy management
What makes it hard
- Salt build-up that stresses crowns and reduces quality
- Waterlogging from substrates that hold too much water
- Uneven moisture across long tabletop rows
What the crop needs
- Free-draining, high air-filled porosity
- Low, stable EC for precise feeding
- Even capillary re-wetting for uniform plants

Strawberries — common questions
Open-top bags or grow bags for strawberries?
Open-top bags give an open planting surface for higher densities and easy runner and fruit management — a favourite for soft fruit.
Should strawberry coir be buffered?
Yes — buffered, low-EC coir avoids early calcium/magnesium lock-up and gives clean nutrition control.
