Coconut husk chips are available in a range of graded sizes to meet the demands of growing orchids.
Graded coconut husk chips as growing medium
Coconut husk is the outer layer of the coconut fruit consisting of long fibres and sponge-like pith particles. In nature, the husk protects the inner germinating seed by resisting excess saturation land salt. The husk, which naturally helps the coconut stay a float in water, also stays uniformly moist and does not rot.
