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.
