Quick Answer
Professor’s Coco Chips 50/50 Blend is a ready-to-use 50 L growing medium made from equal parts coco coir fibre and coco chips. It is RHP certified, washed, pre-buffered and pH stabilised between 5.5 and 6.5 for container plants and hydroponic growing systems.
Product Description
This 50/50 blend combines the moisture-holding qualities of coco coir with the larger air spaces created by coco chips. The coarse structure resists tight compaction, supporting aeration and drainage while retaining water and nutrients throughout the root zone.
Professor’s Nutrients supplies the medium washed and pre-buffered, with a very low electrical conductivity of less than 0.5. The RHP certification provides an independent quality standard for horticultural substrates.
