Take complete control over your hydroponic irrigation cycles with Gold Label HydroCoco 60/40. This professional-grade, fast-draining substrate brings together two of the most effective growing mediums on the market, combining 60% Gold Label 8-16mm clay pebbles with 40% premium coconut coir in a single, unrestrictive 50-litre bag.

Engineered uniquely for active pot cultivation and closed-loop hydroponic systems, this masterfully blended 60/40 ratio delivers a "best of both worlds" growing environment. The expanded clay pebbles ensure high oxygen content wraps around the root zone for rapid drainage, while the absorbent coco coir retains vital water and nutrients between feeds to ensure plants remain evenly supplied.

Core Cultivation Advantages:

  • Active Root Rot Prevention: Excess water and poor aeration will drown delicate plant tissue, causing roots to rot and lose their ability to absorb nutrients. The highly porous structure of HydroCoco 60/40 drains unwanted water away from the root zone instantly, leaving wide macro-air pockets for roots to breathe and thrive.

  • True Blank Canvas (Nutrient-Free): Purposely contains zero additional fertilisers or background nutrition. This gives you absolute control to utilise your own preferred liquid nutrient programme to meet your plants' specific, changing needs from day one.

  • Optimised Hydroponic Performance: The highly absorbent coco holds onto your nutrient solution, reducing irrigation times and steadying pH levels, while the clay pebbles provide optimum conditions to evacuate stale or excess solution. This layout is perfect for Flood & Drain (Ebb & Flow), drip lines, and active pot-based hydroponic systems.

  • RHP and Kiwa Certified: Holds full RHP and Kiwa horticultural certifications. This means the coco coir has been carefully cleaned, washed, and buffered to remove all contaminants. Boasting an exceptionally low baseline EC of less than 0.6, this substrate is almost totally neutral and completely batch-consistent.

How to Use Gold Label HydroCoco 60/40:

 

1.Fill your pots loosely:Loose Distribution.

Gently pour the HydroCoco mixture into your pots, making sure it is distributed evenly across the container.

2.Avoid manual compaction:Protect Air Pockets.

Do not squash, pack down, or compact the substrate into the pots. Keeping it loose ensures the macro-air pockets stay open for maximum oxygenation.

3.Weigh pots between irrigations:Weight Assessment.

Weigh your pots after a full watering to establish a baseline. Because of the hybrid clay-coco structure, plants will feed less frequently than in pure clay pebbles.

4.Irrigate at 50% target dry weight:Targeted Wet-to-Dry Cycles.

Only trigger your next watering cycle or irrigation event once the pots have dropped to approximately half of their fully-watered weight.
