Eco-Coir Bricks and Bale |
 |
from £3.95
|
Producing 70-80 litres of peat-free growing medium from a 30cm L x 30cm W x 13cm H coir bale sounds like something only Derren Brown or Paul Daniels could manage - but this seemingly impossible horticultural magic trick is something you can perform in your own kitchen garden, vegetable patch or allotment, thanks to the Eco-Coir Bricks and Bale!
Just by adding water and stirring, you can convert these organic, peat-free, compact bricks of all-natural coconut fibre (coir) into a growing medium for soil conditioning, hanging baskets and container growing or as additional brown matter for home composts - even as a bedding material for worm composters. They can also be used to lighten clay soils, improve water capacity in sandy soils or can play a major part in creating an ideal potting compost by mixing with other components, such as sand, garden compost, loam and manure. The Eco-Coir Bricks measure 20cm L x 10cm W x 6cm H and produce 9 litres of compost whilst the bales measures 30cm L x 30cm W x 13cm H and will provide you with between 70 and 80 litres of peat-free multi-purpose compost - the size of a large garden centre-bought bag!

 |
from £3.95
|
These 4cm diameter Eco Coir Netted Pellets take up next to no space in your greenhouse or potting shed but produce big results when used to sow and grow your vegetable and ornamental seedlings and cuttings.
Never has the phrase 'just add water' been so appropriate as that's all you need to do with these Jiffy 7 lookalikes and each environmentally friendly pellet - they're made from coir pith, the perfect alternative to peat - will swell up to form a perfect growing medium for seeds and plant cuttings. The netted growing pellets are supplied in packs of 25 and 50, they boast a spot-on ph level and will easily absorb and retain water - not only that, but the swollen coir discs including the seedling or young plant can be planted out directly into the soil, minimising root disturbance and transplanting shock.

Eco Coir Discs |
 |
£2.95
|
These 8.5cm diameter Eco Coir Discs are the bigger brothers of the Eco Coir Netted Pellets and like their seed sowing and propagation siblings, are perfectly suited to raising young plants - but the size of the discs also makes them ideal for creating potting compost for pots, patio containers and planters, trays, troughs and hanging baskets. With the addition of water, each disc swells up to form 500ml of natural coconut fibre-based compost and as the potting discs are sold in packs of 10, you'll be able to create 5 litres of well balanced - the ph is typically between 5.0 and 6.5 - growing medium per pack. The coir growing discs can also be added to existing soil to improve the structure; the high air to water ratio is extremely important for healthy root development and you can grow with confidence knowing the Eco Coir Discs are free from weed seeds and diseases. These greenhouse and garden growing discs are ideal for garden, allotment and greenhouse use and as the cocount fibre is a renewable resource, you'll be doing the planet a favour as well! |

Garden Lime |
 |
£3.95
|
Gardeners have been using lime for years to improve soil conditions and this natural ingredient really is the key to quality soil - for not only does the application of lime raise the PH level of the soil, it improves the crumb structure in heavy soils and in itself is a form of calcium.
The J Arthur Bowers world renowned Garden Lime we stock is supplied in a 3kg box (coverage 30m²), is made from ground limestone and should be applied in late autumn or early winter when the ground is frost free. Use garden lime on particularly acidic soils each year - neutral soil will benefit from an application every 3 years - by scattering over the soil surface and forking in well, and don't forget to treat your brassica plot with garden lime too as a higher PH will help discourage club root. |
