Greenhouse crops production involves a number of enriching inputs. The most important element is the growing medium. Absence of physical properties like aeration, drainage and water holding capacity makes Field soil unsuitable for the production of plants in containers. To improve this situation several soil less growing media have been developed. These media are all inert, sterile soil substrates that have excellent aeration drainage and water holding capacity properties.
A wide range of growing media such as Coirpith, Rockwool, Clay Pebbles and Perlite are available in the market. Coir pith is the first totally organic growing medium that offers top performance in hydroponic systems. Coir pith is becoming one of the most popular growing mediums in the world. Coir pith is also known as coco peat or coir dust.
When compared with other growing medium Coir pith has many advantages. It maintains a larger oxygen capacity and superior water holding ability than rock wool which is a real advantage for hydroponic systems that have intermittent watering cycles. Coco peat is also rich in root stimulating hormones and offers some protection against root diseases including fungus infestation.
