Description
Coco Boost is a 100% natural, all purpose, peat free, coir compost, with balanced plant food. It is suitable for all plants except Ericaceous (lime hating) plants. Each 5kg block makes 75 Litres of premium compost when c20 Litres of water is added. Simply put the block of compressed coir (coconut fibre) compost into a suitable container (we find a wheelbarrow is ideal) and add 20 litres of water, leaving it for 20-30 minutes. Once the water has been absorbed fluff it up with a hand fork and it is ready to use. If any hard lumps remain, add a little more water and they will soon disappear.
Coco Boost is a sustainable, peat free, pH balances, 100% natural all-purpose compost with added NPK slow-release fertiliser that feeds for up to 6 months. It has been independently tested and shown to outperform leading brands including both peat based and peat free composts. Added dry, the fertiliser doesn’t start to degrade until the compost is rehydrated, unlike ready to use compost, where nutritional value available for plants varies dramatically and starts to degrade immediately.
Coco Boost compost helps develop healthy foliage, strong root development and fantastic flower and fruit performance. It is also the environmentally friendly choice being peat free, using sustainable and organic coir made from coco coir fibre.

Our Experience:
We have been struggling to source a reliable, consistent, peat free compost (we all know the issues surrounding the use of peat in horticulture) and have spent a year trialling different makes and blends. We have found Coco Boost consistently deliver excellent results. Not only do our plants flourish in it, coco boost is clean to use and easy to re-wet if it dries out. We are moving to using coco boost for the majority of our plants and as a base for our own compost mixes for specialist plants (alpines, etc).
