Coco and Other Growing Media

Perlite 1l (expanded) for mixing into substrates or as a standalone substrate for hydroponic growing.

 

• the price is for 1l +- 10%
• particle size 0.63mm-4mm
• particles under 0.63mm: 4%

Vermiculite 1l is a natural, soft and porous material obtained by expanding mica. It has a high cation exchange capacity, which supports the gradual release of nutrients – potassium, calcium, magnesium, iron, silicon and other trace elements.

 

• Retains up to 4 times more water while protecting roots from rot.
• Absorbs excess fertilisers and additives, then releases them gradually.
• Improves soil aeration and drainage properties.
• Perlite "likes" air, while vermiculite likes water.
• Suitable for seedling substrates.

Bio Nova Coco Brick is a high-quality 100% natural coco substrate, pre-washed and buffered with Calcium (Ca) and Magnesium (Mg). Each compressed brick expands into up to 10 litres of ready-to-use coco substrate (after adding it to 4-5 litres of water), increasing its volume approximately tenfold. Compared with conventional peat substrates, compressed coco substrate bricks are easier to transport and use.

• excellent properties for water retention
• stimulates ideal root development
• low EC <0.5 mS/cm
value
• has the ideal pH 5.8

Benefits of Bio Nova Coco Brick:

• Excellent water-retention properties – requires less watering (up to 65%) compared with peat substrate. It retains water instead of releasing it like traditional peat substrate. The coco substrate's ability to quickly rewet and its rapid drainage characteristics also reduce nutrient loss through leaching. The pH of coco is natural and slightly acidic and is therefore resistant to the occurrence of bacteria, weeds and fungi, and is truly pathogen-free. Its naturally high lignin content encourages the development of beneficial microorganisms. It can be used both indoors and outdoors. Coco substrate is entirely organic – derived from coconut palms in Sri Lanka. It has no harmful environmental impact when disposed of.

Directions for use:

1. Fill a bucket with 4-5 litres of warm water.
2. Place one coco brick in it and leave it to expand for ± 30 minutes.
3. Stir thoroughly to obtain up to 10 litres of ready-to-use substrate.

CANNA Aqua Clay Expanded clay* consists of baked clay pellets that form the ideal substrate*, intended for experienced growers. It is ideal for growers who want to control nutrient application and their plants' moisture level throughout the entire growing process. It is made from special clay types with a low soluble-salt content. This makes it particularly suitable for use in closed hydroponic growing systems.

 

• Very porous and with a high air content, it encourages the development of strong roots that anchor well in the growing medium. Strong roots are essential for higher yields.
• Inorganic, with neutral pH values. It is free from mould and does not rot.
• Particle size: 8-16mm
• Volume: 45l

Directions for use:

 

First rinse the CANNA Aqua Clay clay pebbles in water to remove loose particles and prevent blockage of the irrigation system.

 

CANNA Aqua Clay clay pebbles can also improve drainage in a soil mix. First place a CANNA Aqua Clay clay pebble layer 4 cm thick in the pot before adding soil.

 

The plastic packaging can be recycled.

CANNA Coco Professional Plus = quality bearing the R.H.P. mark

CANNA Coco Professional Plus consists of 100% coconut fibre. Carefully selected, superior-quality coconuts from India form the basis of CANNA Coco Professional Plus. The absence of any contact with external conditions throughout the manufacturing process guarantees that the final product contains no weeds or soil-borne diseases. The coconut fibre is washed in water, meaning it contains no salts. This makes it the finest growing medium of the future. The manufacturing process is subject to strict quality control, so we can guarantee this product's quality. CANNA Coco Professional Plus bears the R.H.P. mark for the highest quality. In fact, this product's quality is far above the requirements of the R.H.P. standard.*. In short, the R.H.P. quality mark* means that the product is free from weeds. R.H.P. inspections are not limited to the finished product; they cover the extraction and processing of raw materials throughout the chain to the final product. The buffering* process of CANNA allows us to “reprogram” the growing medium to a specific age level. This guarantees that you will repeatedly receive reliable, high-quality material.

 

CANNA Coco Professional Plus is a high-quality leading product that fully meets the strictest R.H.P. standards. It stands apart from other coconut substrates through its premium raw materials and optimal structure and purity. CANNA Coco Professional Plus contains 45% cellulose, ensuring that its physical properties are retained for a long period. The water/air ratio is 73%/23%. In addition, a special procedure is followed in which the coconut fibres are rinsed and buffered to adapt them to the plants' needs. This is done to achieve ideal growing conditions in the substrate, so the plant can develop as optimally as possible from the very beginning of the growing process.

 

Directions for use:

Use pots with a capacity of at least 5L. The larger the pot, the more stable the root environment. If you use CANNA Coco Professional Plus in combination with fertilizers from the COCO product range by CANNA, designed for this purpose, you are investing in quality and reliable products!

• For seedlings, young plants and cuttings
• Improves quality and final yield

 

• EC: 0.2
• pH: 6.8

It is made from waste material left over from the coconut industry, which has proven to be an ideal medium for growing plants. To become this well-known substrate, the coconut fibres are first decomposed for a period of time to soften the tough fibres. They are then rinsed with clean water, dried and shredded to become light and airy Coco - Mix – containing little moisture and with a low pH of 5 or 6.

 

How is it used?

 

• Coco - Mix works well in pots as a substitute for rockwool for growing all types of hydroponic crops – simply fill small pots with Coco - Mix. It is compatible with all types of nutrients and can be used to refresh All - Mix or other soil mixes and with its usual A + B range to improve aeration. Combine with Biobizz products such as Root - Juice, Bio - Bloom, Top - Max and Bio - Heaven, and look forward to improved quality and final yield from your plants.

Less buffering means more control

The buffering* of CANNA Coco Natural is not as extensive as that of CANNA Coco Professional Plus. This means you have more control over the buffering process and a greater influence on plant growth and flowering. If you wish to pre-buffer this coconut substrate to the same level as its premium cousin, it is worth taking a look at CANNA COGr buffering solution.
Thanks to the light buffering and light pre-soaking, this product is much lighter. This means there is less water in the bag. This product weighs 11 – 12 kg and is therefore easy to transport. You simply need to allow it to absorb a little more water in the growing room.
Most importantly, it is a very reliable product. It is simply not as easy to use as CANNA Coco Professional Plus. Which of the two you prefer is up to you.

 

Directions for use

CANNA Coco Natural is a quality product that meets strict horticultural standards. The purity of the raw materials used sets it apart from other coconut substrates.
