Full product description

GreenPlanet Professional Coco Perlite 70:30 is a premium, ready-to-use growing medium designed to deliver an ideal balance of moisture retention, drainage and root-zone aeration.

Made from RHP-certified, fully buffered coco blended with high-quality perlite, this professional substrate provides a consistent and reliable environment for strong root development and vigorous plant growth. The 70% coco and 30% perlite blend helps retain sufficient moisture while allowing excess water to drain quickly, reducing compaction and increasing oxygen availability around the roots.

The buffered coco supports stable growing conditions and excellent water-holding capacity, while the added perlite improves airflow and drainage throughout the root zone. This makes the blend particularly suitable for hydroponic growers who require a clean, efficient and responsive growing medium.

GreenPlanet Professional Coco Perlite is ready to use straight from the bag and can be used with hand-watering setups, automated irrigation systems and coco-specific nutrient programs. Its clean, low-salt formulation and consistent structure make it suitable for use throughout the entire crop cycle.

Why Use GreenPlanet Professional Coco Perlite?

The 70:30 coco-to-perlite ratio provides an effective balance between water retention and drainage. Coco holds moisture and nutrients around the root zone, while perlite creates additional air spaces that help oxygen reach the roots.

This balance can help plants establish strong root systems, recover quickly between irrigations and efficiently absorb nutrients. It is particularly useful for growers who prefer frequent feeding or automated irrigation without allowing the growing medium to remain excessively wet.

How to Use

Fill pots or containers with GreenPlanet Professional Coco Perlite without heavily compressing the growing medium.

Place the plant into the container and water thoroughly using a suitable coco nutrient solution. Allow adequate runoff to prevent nutrient salts from accumulating in the root zone.

For best results:

  • Use nutrients designed for coco growing media.
  • Check and adjust nutrient solution pH before watering.
  • Monitor EC and runoff regularly.
  • Do not allow the coco to dry out completely.
  • Provide sufficient drainage from the bottom of the container.
  • Watering frequency should be adjusted according to plant size, temperature, humidity and container size.
