PlantScraper Coco Husk Chips are a premium coarse substrate component for adding moisture retention, airflow and durable structure to aroid, orchid and epiphytic growing mixes.

Unlike fine coco coir or coco pith, these chips maintain a coarse physical structure that absorbs and gradually releases moisture while preserving air spaces around the roots.

They are washed, buffered and ready to use directly from the bag.

• Washed: Reduces excess soluble salts naturally present in unprocessed coconut material.
• Buffered: Improves the chemical stability of the coco before use.
• Very low specified EC: Below 0.5 mS/cm.
• Consistent 10 to 15 mm grading: Provides predictable coarse structure with limited fine material.
• Moisture-retentive: Absorbs water while maintaining physical air spaces.
• Screened and sieved: Selected for a more consistent substrate component.
• Origin: India.

The combination of coarse particle size and water-holding ability makes coco husk chips especially useful when you want more moisture retention without turning the substrate into a fine, dense medium.

• Monsteras
• Philodendrons
• Anthuriums
• Orchids
• Hoyas
• Other tropical and epiphytic plants
• Custom aroid substrate mixes
• Orchid mixes
• Moss pole filling mixes
• Substrates requiring additional moisture retention without excessive compaction

Use directly from the bag. The chips are already washed and buffered.

For aroid mixes:
Combine with bark, perlite, tree fern fibre or a suitable organic growing medium to increase moisture retention while maintaining coarse structure.

For orchids and epiphytes:
Use alone where appropriate or combine with bark and other coarse materials according to the plant's moisture requirements.

For moss poles:
Combine with sphagnum and bark to create a structured medium that retains moisture while maintaining airflow.

As a natural fibrous material, coco chips can settle slightly through repeated wet and dry cycles. Refresh or restructure the mix when repotting if required.
