Fine Coco Peat 5 kg Compressed Block
FineBase™ is a professional-grade growing medium produced from 100% natural cocopeat, processed into a fine and uniform structure for reliable moisture retention and consistent root-zone conditions.
PRODUCT OVERVIEW
Fine Coco Peat for Reliable Moisture Management
FineBase™ is a professional-grade growing medium produced from 100% natural cocopeat, carefully processed into a fine and uniform structure for applications where reliable moisture retention and consistent root-zone conditions are essential.
Supplied as a compact 5 kg compressed block, FineBase™ provides an efficient solution for commercial growers, nurseries, greenhouse operations and professional substrate preparation. Once hydrated, the block expands into a loose, easy-to-handle growing medium with excellent water-holding capacity.
FineBase™ can be supplied in washed or unwashed grades, with low-EC options available depending on crop requirements.
Key Benefits
GROWING CHARACTER
Fine Structure Designed for Moisture Retention
FineBase™ is processed into a fine, uniform cocopeat structure that helps retain moisture and supports consistent conditions throughout the root zone.
Fine Particle Structure
FineBase™ is processed into a fine and uniform cocopeat structure designed to provide consistent physical characteristics throughout the growing medium.
High Water-Holding Capacity
The fine cocopeat structure helps retain moisture within the substrate, making FineBase™ suitable for applications where reliable moisture availability is important.
Consistent Root-Zone Conditions
