RIOCOCO offers a nutrient-enriched medium for growing strawberries in coco coir

 The diversified usages of naturally harvested coconut buy-products of coco peat and coco coir or substrate have been effectively applied in hydroponics type of crop and flower propagation techniques by cultivators worldwide.

Herein, RIOCOCO, the leading sustainable coco by-products producer and supplier in Sri Lanka brings in 100% organic coir-based ingredients that are naturally extracted during the coconut husking procedure. Thus, these recyclable and highly effective natural growth mediums of grow planks can prove to be the best for growingstrawberries in coco coir with faster root development and healthier procreation of plants. 

 

How the Organic Growth Medium Of Coco Coir Proves Effective for Growing Strawberries?

 

Commonly, strawberry plants require a natural well-drained and fertile soil to effectively propagate, wherein the cultivation can be actualized through the weather-controlled indoor tanking farming methods of planters. In this process, RIOCOCO comes with a 100% natural and recyclable medium of super-washed and nutrient-fortified coco coir made grow planks or platforms that act as a highly functional growth media for strawberry production. 

 

Grow Plank

 

Although, strawberry plants require only organic soil with deep, sandy, and loamy well-drained attributes, it can also well propagate in aquaculture techniques sustaining such distinctive soil conditions. In this process of tray agriculture that is actualized in weather-controlled environments like grow rooms, the cultivators apply a unique nutrient solution, devoid of any soil. Herein, an innovative grow plank or upraised platforms are specifically used as an effective growth medium for the strawberry plants. Such grow planks come in the shape of containers or buckets with only plastic wrapping, negating the use of hydroponic grow bags. 

 

Such highly functional growing platforms from RIOCOCO are nowadays becoming a trend amongst the tank farming cultivators for propagating the strawberries. Through such an exclusive process of cultivation, the agronomists witnessed and realized that their strawberry plants have been capable to develop with uniform root growth, thanks to the 50:50 ratio of water to air allocation throughout the entire root system. This nutrient-enriched aquaculture-based solution helps to generate a faster and optimal growth of the strawberry flowers producing effective harvest, gaining an appetizing taste of fresh berries, and increased supply throughout all the seasons in the year. 

 

Now, in the stages of creating the grow planks, distinctly selected organic raw materials of coco coir are amalgamated and flattened for devising bricks or slabs, depending on the distinct dimensions of the bucket. Subsequently, the grow planks are stationed and saturated with clean water in the container itself. Thereafter, young plants of the strawberry are sown at equal intervals in the growing plank media. 

 


In this context, the grow planks are fabricated and blended with 65% coir natural mix and 35% coir chips. This unique blend brings in an effective water holding capacity of 6.5 - 7 L/Kg, and also with 21% to 23% air-filled porosity or absorbency. 

 

Moreover, as such grow planks are filled with biodegradable coir slabs that come with a neutral pH level of 5.5 to 6.5, they can be directly used in the nutrient solution, where the strawberry plants are positioned in a hydroponic method of cultivation. 

 

Final Verdict

 

Taking cognizance of such intrinsic premiums displayed by the 100% natural and highly functional plant propagation medium of grow planks from RIOCOCO; it will be a judicious strategy for the agronomists for growing strawberries in coco coir as a sustainable solution of horticultural approach.
