UGRO – Slab – Coconut fiber bread 15L – 1M

Ugro Slab is a  grow bag  that contains 1.6kg of high quality pressed and dehydrated coconut, composed of 40% coconut peat, 30% fiber and 30% shavings. It has holes in its base to facilitate drainage as well as an opening for watering. Its outer shell has been treated to obtain excellent UV stability. It allows you to obtain up to  15 liters of coconut peat with only 4 liters of water.

Coconut substrate is the result of crushing and successive processing of the coconut shell and can be used as an alternative cultivation method to traditional substrates. It has excellent water retention and aeration properties which promote rapid growth of the root system and the plant. Being a  sustainable and biodegradable organic material , it is naturally rich in trichoderma, a microorganism that fights root rot and stimulates the growth of your plant.

Advantages of Ugro Slab

It is practical and easy to handle, hydrate and store. It is suitable for all types of cultivation, both outdoors and indoors. Ideal for horticulture and flower growing.

Coconut fiber has many natural properties that guarantee your crop the best growing conditions:

It has excellent water retention and aeration properties which help the root system and the plant grow faster.

It is naturally rich in trichodermas harzianum, a microorganism that fights root rot and stimulates the growth of your plant.

Being rinsed with fresh water, it is pathogen-free, odor-free and free of stones, roots and other impurities.

All Ugro products are buffered, which means that they have been treated with a solution to reduce their Potassium and Sodium levels to allow the fertilizers used to act directly on the plants.

The raw materials we use come from plantations located far from the Indian coast, in a non-saline environment, thus avoiding any contact with salt water. This allows us to guarantee a low level of electroconductivity (EC) in all our products, always with the same premium quality, bag after bag. In addition, it is easy to dispose of coconut fiber after use. If you have a compost bin at home, you can throw the fiber in there. Or, if you prefer, you can also let it decompose naturally at the bottom of your garden.

UGro is the ideal substrate that will suit both beginners and experts.  It’s that simple!
