Try the 3 top-performing coco substrates by Atami Holland.
RHP Certified means consistency and reliability
Pre-fertilized for a healthy start
Cocos-Substrate
Cocos-Substrate is a high-quality compost comprised of coco fibres extracted from the mesocarp of the coconut. It is a 100% natural product and designed so that it can be used immediately.
Cocos-Substrate is produced under controlled conditions, which is an assurance of quality and offers the ability to use it over and over again after each growing cycle. It can absorb plenty of water in a short period of time and can also deliver water rapidly and abundantly.
The roots also have plenty of available oxygen, which keeps them active. Despite the absence of residual water, there is always enough humidity for the plant.
High-Porosity-Cocos
High-Porosity-Cocos (HPC) combines the properties of ATAMI’s Cocos Substrate with perlite for increased substrate airiness. The coco of Atami is known to be very clean and low in detrimental salts, while also containing balanced fertilization. To achieve this, the coco is ripened, washed, buffered, and lightly fertilized.
Perlite is a volcanic rock that has been formed during volcanic eruptions. It is treated with a high temperature to make it expand. You can compare it to popcorn. When we heat a corn grain, it pops into an airy treat. The same can happen to perlite, which pops into a porous structure of about twenty times its original size. By mixing this perlite through your substrate, the airiness of your substrate is greatly increased.
Due to the addition of perlite to the coco, the product reaches an air percentage of about 30%. The availability of air is essential for the development of roots. Plants require oxygen to ‘burn’ sugars and use them up for their energy. Through the use of this energy, the root system expands and develops further.
Bi-Grow-Mix
Bi-Grow-Mix is a high-quality substrate. Its composition is well balanced for the optimum development of a wide variety of plants.
Bi-Grow-Mix is a mix of many types of high-quality peat and coco fibres. It has a more "earthy" feel, when compared to the Cocos Substrate, and contains more organic matter.
An important feature of Bi-Grow-Mix is its air/water ratio. The gaps present in Bi-Grow-Mix may be filled with water and air. Thanks to the coco fibres, gaps filled with air taken in a higher volume, which means more oxygen benefits for the plant. Bi-Grow-Mix does not retract and easily absorbs water. Nutrients are gradually released and are thus constantly available for the plant. The presence of cocoa fibres facilitates root development.
Bi-Grow-Mix is pre-fertilized you don’t need to add any nutrients during the first weeks of the cultivation, depending on how many plants and pot size. After this starting period, Atami advises adding liquid fertilizer to the nutrient water for optimal results.
Bi-Grow-Mix contains 40% coco fibre, 10% white peat, and 50% black peat. The coco ensures an open structure so the roots can grow optimally which is especially important for the uptake of nutrients for a stronger and more resilient plant.
