Fertile Fibre Here.
We have had massive interest in this free sample from this website link.The sample has been available for over a year and will be sending out samples when we return from the New Year. We are only a small company and would ask that you are interested in peat free products before you order or we will be force to remove it as a sample which would be a shame for the people that are interested in reducing the destruction of Peat Bogs.

This year I grew about 1,000 seeds, so I am very interested in your products. And I'd like to see the benefits of growing them with/without peat.

Cheers, btw.

Coir is something that's supplied in a dried out brick format and you have to put in a large tub with a lot of water before it becomes usable then even after that it dries out much quicker than compost. Unless you're growing plants that thrive in a peat environment, it's not a good substitute for compost.

Kyleleonard Hi
It would be a pleasure to send you a sample
Emp-84 Hi also'
It is generally known that coir requires less water that peat and if something does dry out, coir rehydrates were peat is nearly impossible to do. People fall into the trap that coir is peat and use it the same it is different. We recommend that you water little and often and mainly in the morning so that your plant does not lie damp all night. The watering is not easy but can be mastered, the other thing you need to be aware of is that it can look dry from the top but can still be wet under the surface.
So follow the rule little and often

We use it as a safe and moist burrowing substrate in our salamander tanks.
