VDL CocoPlus Brick: The Perfect Substrate for Successful Hydroponic Growing

Nowadays, hydroponic growing has become a popular option among farmers as it allows plants to be grown without soil. The substrate is one of the most important elements of hydroponic growing and choosing the right substrate is essential for the success of the crop. Next, we will talk about VDL CocoPlus Brick, a high-quality substrate that has become the preferred option for professional growers of ornamental and horticultural plants.

What is the VDL CocoPlus Brick?

VDL CocoPlus Brick is a 100% natural coconut fiber substrate produced from coconut shell. This product has been subjected to treatment with spring water to lower the EC to minimal levels. This treatment ensures that the substrate is totally natural and suitable for use in hydroponic crops.

What are the characteristics of coconut fiber?

Coconut fiber is characterized by having good air distribution, the ability to store water, low conductivity, being free of diseases and having a high cation exchange capacity. The coconut fiber used in the manufacture of CocoPlus is of the highest quality, as it has been subjected to quality controls at each stage of production. Furthermore, the age of the raw material is greater than 16-18 months, which makes it a stable material suitable for cultivation.

How is CocoPlus made?

In CocoPlus an exclusive manufacturing technique is used by which the finest dust particles are eliminated, which reduces the problems of root suffocation, loss of substrate height and heterogeneity that may appear throughout the crop.

Why is CocoPlus recommended in hydroponic crops with lost solution?

CocoPlus is the perfect substrate for hydroponic crops with lost solution due to its characteristics of good air distribution, capacity to store water, low conductivity and high cation exchange capacity. These characteristics ensure that plants can absorb the nutrients necessary for their growth.
