Coco coir is a great base to any soil mix, and has earned itself a spot in all of our SYBASoil mixes. It holds moisture well without becoming too wet and will increase aeration because of its structure. 

Our coco coir is ready to use and comes in convenient bags, unlike most coco blocks which have to be hydrated and kneaded by hand before being usable. 

   Ecological choice compared to peat moss
   Salt-free
   Combination of drainage AND water retention
   Perfect for propagation

Coco coir v.s. peat moss
While coco coir and peat moss share many of the same characteristics. Peat is not a sustainable resource and lots of CO2 is released by extracting it from the land. The coir is harvested from the shell of coconuts and is a waste product from other industries like the food branch. By utilizing this waste stream we are not only preventing unnecessary carbon emission from harvesting peat, we are also using waste products.

Salt-free
Coco coir, also known as coco fibre, usually has to be buffered before use. This means it has to be placed in a buffer solution to remove salt-buildup naturally present in coconut husk. This process has already been done for you so you use the coir immediately on arrival.

Socially responsible production

At Sybotanica we not only want to make plants happy, but people happy as well. In our production team we exclusively hire people with a distance from the workforce, and help them rehabilitate to the normal working life.


Take Peter for example:

Peter has been with Sybotanica since the 1st hour, and has now been promoted to head of production & a permanent contract! Where he was the first employee, he now manages a team of 3 production workers.

What makes this achievement even more impressive is that Peter achieved all this with only 10% visibility! 🕶️ With a few minor adjustments to his working environment, Peter is able to perform his job 100%.

Peter has now been through two moves and knows all the ins & outs of Sybotanica. He can even feel by the potting soil which variety it is. That's quite a challenge with 16 different mixes!

We are confident that Peter will keep production running smoothly in the coming years too! 💪

FAQ

¿Puedo usar fibra de coco sustrato en un terrario?
Puedes usar fibra de coco sustrato como sustrato para terrarios. Mézclalo con un poco de musgo sphagnum y chips de coco o corteza. También puedes obtener nuestra mezcla para terrarios ya preparada.

Fibra de coco sustrato como fondo de terrario.
Para usar fibra de coco sustrato como fondo, comienza creando una pared trasera de espuma de PU y silicona. Presiona la fibra de coco sustrato contra la silicona hasta que forme una capa sólida y déjala secar.
Repite este proceso hasta que tengas un buen fondo. La fibra de coco sustrato es segura para reptiles y otros animales de terrario. Retendrá la humedad, creando un ambiente perfecto.

¿Está libre de sales y lista para usar la fibra de coco sustrato?
Los cocoteros naturalmente contienen altos niveles de sal ya que crecen en áreas costeras. La fibra de coco sustrato debe ser completamente enjuagada, lavada y tamponada antes de usarla para cultivar plantas.

¡Nuestra fibra de coco sustrato ya ha pasado por este proceso y está lista para usar!

¿Se puede reutilizar la fibra de coco sustrato?
Sí, puedes reutilizar tu fibra de coco sustrato. Sin embargo, necesitas limpiarla entre usos para evitar la acumulación de minerales o sales en tu suelo.
Un enjuague a fondo debería ser suficiente para eliminar los residuos de sal en la fibra de coco sustrato.

Luego, añade un fertilizante con calcio y micronutrientes para reponer los nutrientes de la fibra de coco sustrato. Después de este proceso, permite que tu fibra de coco sustrato se seque completamente.

También se recomienda revisar tu fibra de coco sustrato en busca de plagas o insectos antes de reutilizarla.
Si encuentras alguna criatura en tu fibra de coco sustrato, es mejor evitar reutilizarla para tus plantas.
¿Diferencia entre musgo de turba y fibra de coco sustrato?
El musgo de turba se hace de turberas, que consisten en sphagnum descompuesto. Es apreciado por su alto contenido de nutrientes y su capacidad de retención de agua.
Sin embargo, es muy insostenible. El musgo de turba tarda años en regenerarse. Su cosecha causa altas emisiones de CO2.

Aquí es donde la fibra de coco sustrato ofrece una mejor alternativa. Retiene agua como la turba; sin embargo, es ecológica.
La fibra de coco sustrato es un subproducto de la industria del coco, lo que significa que sus emisiones son mucho menores en comparación con la turba.
Todavía hay una gran emisión de transporte ya que proviene de países como Sri Lanka.

Estamos probando alternativas para encontrar un reemplazo perfecto y a prueba de futuro. Sin embargo, esto es más difícil de lo que pensábamos.

Why THIS Coco Coir compared to others?

Amortiguado y listo para usar.
Lavado con agua de lluvia natural de una granja certificada.

Origin of our Coco Coir

Nuestra fibra de coco sustrato proviene de una granja certificada (RHP/ECAS) en Sri Lanka, asegurando:
- Trabajadores justamente remunerados (lo cual, lamentablemente, no siempre es el caso para este producto)
- Un producto de calidad, lavado y limpiado con agua de lluvia natural (por lo que no hay desperdicio de agua limpia).

La cadena de suministro es actualmente más larga de lo que nos gustaría. Pero estamos trabajando arduamente para encontrar un reemplazo para la Fibra de Coco Sustrato y los Chips de Coco con cualidades similares a estos materiales.

Estamos realizando múltiples pruebas con la Universidad de Wageningen para encontrar una alternativa adecuada. Pero aún no hemos encontrado un ganador.

Super Erde

Ich habe mir die Kokoserde als Anzuchtalternative bestellt um meine Chilis darin zu ziehen.
Das Substrat ist von einer super Qualität.
Die ersten Pflanzen sind bereits vom Keimhaus unter die Anzuchtbeleuchtung gewandert.

Ich würde es wieder bestellen!

Order arrived fast and the seller is very gentle.
Let's see now if my succulents appreciate that new soil mix with this coco coir 😁

I am sure they will appreciate it Jean! Make sure to add enough drainage with for example Perlite or Pumice. You don't want the succulents to be in a too moist soil.

Very nice personalized connection with Sybren. There was a great explanation when I was wondering about what the volume of the coir would be. The mailing was very rapid! And the quality of the coir was just what I was hoping for. All in all a perfect Etsy experience!
