At Plantonix..
We do not use harsh chemical washes and steaming that destroys the naturally occurring benefits in coco coir. Our coco coir is fully washed multiple times with fresh water to attain extremely low EC levels and to reduce the risk of salt buildup in your soil.
Plantonix coco bliss is a premier growing medium and is the best natural alternative to peat moss with a neutral pH. Our coco peat is free from dirt, foreign material and weed seeds. We screen our washed raw material to remove dirt and larger lumps to get a superior texture.
Used as a growing medium, coco peat outperforms most of the popular brands of peat and sphagnum peat.

How to use Plantonix Coco Bliss
Directions
- Lay briquette down flat somewhere with good drainage.
- Slowly pour warm water over briquette allowing water to absorb without runoff. Let briquette sit for 30-40 minutes.
- Break apart with hands until light and spongy.
Suggestions
When using coco peat as growing medium, we highly recommend buffering of the product. This process involves pre-soaking the coir for 12-24 hours with a buffering solution high in calcium; this displaces the sodium and balances the naturally occurring potassium. After the soaking period the media is washed with water, this removes the displaced sodium, leaving the calcium in the coir.
Tips
- Warmer the water, the faster and easier is the expansion.
- Do not use hot water over 100 degrees Fahrenheit
Our Goal...
is to provide you with the gift of a healthy, organic farm or garden, free of unnatural and harmful additives.

I have not used this yet in my homemade potting soil. I expect excellent results. I will report back if I experience negative results.
Edit: The pictures reflect 2 bricks mixed with enough water to make it light and fluffy.

Convenient and easy to use
By Chelle on April 15, 2019
Using these smaller bricks rather than the larger ones makes it much simpler to break down and mix. The larger bricks require a very large tub/wagon, etc while these smaller ones can be mixed with water and fully break down in a five-gallon bucket (as shown in photos).By Chelle on April 15, 2019
