Seed starting
When starting seeds, soil discs made from coconut coir pellets are oftentimes a must. These discs are small, compressed tablets about two inches in diameter. They sit flat, pack well into trays, and quickly expand when wet. Coco coir discs are an excellent home for seedlings because they leave room for root expansion and have a biodegradable composition, which makes transplanting a breeze.
To use coconut coir discs with your seedlings:
1) Place the seed inside of the center of the disc, then set the disc in a shallow pan.
2) Slowly add water, and the disc will rapidly absorb the water and begin to swell.
3) Continue adding water to the pan as needed, and soon, the seed will sprout and start to grow.
4) Once the seedlings are large enough, prepare the soil where you will be planting them. Dig a hole slightly larger than the swelled discs, and place the seedling in the ground. If your coco coir discs have netting, you will want to snip them off to ensure the roots can escape. As the seedlings’ roots spread, the coir disc retains moisture and improves the plants’ ability to adapt to life in the garden by keeping it hydrated consistently.
