We are nuts about coconuts!
Coconuts?
Yes, finely shredded coconut shells offer all the water absorption
benefits of peat moss, but in a lightweight, won’t-break-your-back-to-carry,
easy-to-fit-in-your-car, even-has-a-handle packaging. Coir (the technical term
for shredded coconut shell) expands with water and unlike traditional peat
moss, coir is a renewable resource. In fact, coir is a bi-product of the edible
coconut industry, so it saves those shells from a garbage dump or landfill.
The coir product is called Peat Eliminator and it
comes in a small, lightweight brick. You wet it down the same way you would
Peat Moss and this small package absorbs water and fills an entire wheelbarrow!
Then you add it to your garden when you are planting or anytime to improve your
soil.
