FAQ's
What are coir pellets made from?
Coir pellets are made from compressed coconut husk fibre — a natural, renewable by-product of the coconut industry.
They contain:
- finely milled coir pith (for moisture retention)
- coir fibre (for structure and aeration)
No peat, no synthetic binders, and no added nasties. Just coconut fibre that expands when watered.

Are coir pellets good for seed germination?
Yes — coir is scientifically proven to support high germination rates.
It offers:
- excellent water retention
- strong aeration
- a naturally neutral pH (around 5.5–6.5)
- great root oxygenation
- low risk of fungal disease compared to soil
They’re ideal for heirloom and delicate seeds because the seed stays in the same medium from sprouting to transplanting.
Are coir pellets eco-friendly?
Yes. Coir is a renewable, biodegradable material made from coconut husks that would otherwise be wasted.
They’re a sustainable alternative to:
- peat pellets (peat extraction is environmentally damaging)
- plastic seedling trays
- foam plugs
The entire pellet breaks down in your garden soil over time.
Do coir pellets contain fertiliser?
Most coir pellets — including ours — are fertiliser-free.
This gives you full control over what your seedlings are fed and reduces the risk of nutrient burn on young roots.
Can I plant the whole pellet in the garden?
Absolutely. The roots grow straight through the coir, so you transplant the entire pellet with no root disturbance and minimal transplant shock.
