Description

Fifty liters of coconut chips in a single block. COCO chips BIOVITA are a compressed briquette made from crushed coconut shells and fibers - with no chemical additives. After soaking in approx. 18 l of water, the 4.5 kg block expands to approx. 50 l of loose chips that loosen and aerate the substrate, store water and create ideal conditions for roots. A favorite component of substrates for orchids, aroids and terrarium bedding.

In brief

  • Weight / volume: 4.5 kg briquette → approx. 50 l after soaking
  • Type: coconut chips (coarse shell pieces), compressed briquette
  • Composition: 100% crushed coconut shells and fibers, with no chemical additives
  • pH: 5.5–6.5
  • Block dimensions: approx. 30 × 30 × 13 cm
  • Intended use: orchids, aroids, epiphytic plants, substrate component, mulch, terrariums and aquariums
  • Application: soak in approx. 18 l of water in a container of approx. 70 l; loosen after swelling
  • Yield: 50 l is enough for, for example, a dozen or so orchid pots or a 20–30% addition to approx. 200 l of soil

What makes this product stand out

Coconut chips are coarse pieces of coconut shell - unlike fine fiber (coco peat), they do not compact and decompose very slowly, so the substrate remains airy for years. At the same time, each piece acts like a sponge: it absorbs water and gradually releases it to the roots, which means less frequent watering and a lower risk of overwatering. The natural, slightly acidic pH (5.5–6.5) suits most potted plants.

The briquette form is highly economical: a 4.5 kg block contains approx. 50 l of ready-to-use material, so it takes up only a fraction of the space of loose-packed chips and is cheaper to ship. BIOVITA is a Polish substrate manufacturer - the product is biodegradable, free from chemical additives and 100% nature-friendly, which will also appeal to terrarium keepers looking for safe bedding.

How to use step by step

Soaking: Place the block in a large container (approx. 70 l - a bathtub, large crate or wheelbarrow) and add approx. 18 l of water, preferably lukewarm. Wait until the briquette absorbs the water and swells; if necessary, break it apart by hand and add a little water until all the chips are loose and moist. You can also soak only a broken-off piece and store the rest of the block dry.

Loosening and rinsing: Transfer and drain the loosened chips. For sensitive plants (orchids, carnivorous plants, seedlings), rinse them 1–2 times with clean water - coconut material may contain natural salts, and rinsing eliminates this issue.

Application: For orchids, use the chips alone or with the addition of bark and charcoal. For monsteras, philodendrons and other aroids, mix them with soil at a ratio of approx. 1:3–1:4 (20–30% chips). As mulch, spread a 2–3 cm layer over the surface of the substrate in pots or in a terrarium.

Watering: The chips store water, so water less frequently and check moisture with your finger. Plants grown in pure coconut material require regular fertilization - coconut contains no nutrients, so feed them every 2–3 waterings with fertilizer at half the recommended dose.

Applications

Coconut chips are the foundation of orchid substrate (phalaenopsis, cattleyas, dendrobiums) and epiphytic plant substrates, an excellent soil-loosening component for monsteras, philodendrons, alocasias and other aroids, as well as palms and exotic plants that do not tolerate compacted substrate. They work well as mulch in pots to limit evaporation, in hydroponics and soilless cultivation, and as safe bedding in terrariums and aquariums. Combined with perlite and coconut fiber, they create a lightweight substrate for rooting cuttings of exotic plants.

Gardener's tip

Not soaking the whole block at once? Break off a piece with a saw or large knife while dry - it is much easier than dividing a wet block - and soak it in only the amount you need (approx. 4 l of water per 1 kg of briquette). The rest can be stored in a dry place for years. And if you are buying the chips for orchids, soak them for 24 hours before use in water with a little orchid fertilizer - the coconut will become “charged” with nutrients instead of drawing them from the first watering.
