Char Coir BioPot, 4 inch

The 4-inch Char Coir BioPot is an all-in-one pot: a non-woven fabric wrap with compressed coco coir inside, ready to hydrate and plant. It eliminates the need to buy a pot and substrate separately, and its capacity is equivalent to a 16 oz cup, the ideal size for seedlings and rooted cuttings in the early growth stage.

Benefits

• 100% RHP certified coco coir, buffered, pathogen-free, and with an EC less than 0.6.
• pH stabilized between 6.0 and 6.5, ready to receive your nutrient solution without correcting the medium.
• High cation exchange capacity (CEC) for better nutrient availability.
• No external container needed: the fabric wrap functions as a pot and allows the roots to breathe.
• 4-inch diameter, approximately 1.89 L (half gallon), once hydrated.

How to use

Open the box, unfold the wrap, and place the BioPot in the tray. Hydrate it with pH-adjusted water until the coco coir fully expands and drains any excess. Then plant the seed or rooted cutting in the center and water in short, frequent cycles, as with any coco coir crop.
