CANNA Coco Natural – Pure Coco Coir for Succulents & DIY Mixes
CANNA Coco Natural – Pure Coco Coir for Succulents & DIY Mixes
CANNA Coco Natural – The Blank Canvas for People Who Like Control
Every good potting-mix recipe starts with a base that doesn't argue with you. Pre-fed composts come with their own ideas about nutrition, and whether you're building a gritty cactus mix, a bark-heavy orchid blend or dialling in a hydro feed schedule, those ideas get in the way. CANNA Coco Natural has none. It's pure coco coir, made from coconut husk and only lightly buffered, with no added fertiliser at all. It gives you structure, moisture and air, and leaves every other decision to you.
Perfect For
- Succulent and cactus mixes: blend it with perlite and grit for a fast-draining base
- Orchid and epiphyte mixes: combine it with bark for a moisture-holding but airy blend
- Improving heavy compost: stir it in to open up structure without adding any fertiliser
- Seedlings and cuttings: a clean, peat-free start for young roots
- Container gardening: patio pots, herbs and veg, with great drainage and aeration
- Growers and hydroponics: hand-watered pots, drip and run-to-waste systems, for experienced growers who want total control of feeding from day one
Coco Natural or Coco Pro Plus?
Both are genuine CANNA coco. Coco Pro Plus is fully buffered and washed, so it's ready to use straight from the bag, which makes it the easier choice for everyday houseplants. Coco Natural is more lightly buffered and a little more raw: the better pick when you're mixing your own recipes or want to fine-tune feeding yourself.
Key Benefits
- 100% natural coco, peat-free
- No added fertiliser, so there's no risk of feed burn or clashing with your own feeding
- Excellent balance of water retention and air for strong root development
- Free from soil-borne diseases
- Holds its structure and can be reused several times, so it's cost-effective and eco-friendly
- Produced in India to CANNA's quality controls
How to Use
For best results, soak and rinse before use in water adjusted to around pH 5.8. Because it contains no nutrients, start a liquid feed from the first watering. CANNA Coco A&B is made for coco, and half strength is plenty for houseplants.
🌿 Rose's Pro-Tip: my go-to succulent base is 4 parts Coco Natural, 3 parts perlite and 3 parts grit. It holds just enough moisture for roots to drink, then dries out fast enough that rot never gets a look in.
Which Size?
Sample, 1L, 5L, 10L, 20L, 50L and 50L × 2. Sample to 20L sizes are carefully decanted from fresh, genuine CANNA 50L bags into secure packaging. 50L comes in the original sealed bag, and 50L × 2 is the best value for big collections and grow rooms.
