£15.95
CANNA Coco Pebble 60/40 Premium Mix | Professional Dual-Purpose Hydroponic Substrate & Soil Aeration Booster
Take your indoor plant cultivation to a professional level with the genuine, high-performance CANNA 60/40 Coco Pebble Blend. This premium, RHP-certified medium combines CANNA’s world-renowned Professional Plus Coco with their high-performance Aqua Clay Pebbles (LECA) to deliver the ultimate balance of advanced root oxygenation, clean moisture retention, and total nutrient control.
💡 The CANNA Difference: Why This 60/40 Mix is Better
Most standard 60/40 blends on the market are mostly hard pebbles (60% pebbles / 40% coco), which dry out incredibly fast. CANNA reverses this ratio entirely to 60% Premium Coco and 40% Clay Pebbles. This unique engineering allows the medium to hold onto water and nutrients much more effectively—meaning you don't have to water constantly, while your plants still benefit from the massive, uncollapsible aeration of the clay pebbles.
One Bag, Two Powerful Applications:
1. As a Standalone Semi-Hydro & Self-Watering Medium (Ready to Use)
The absolute gold standard for modern passive hydroponics, active reservoirs, and self-watering planters (such as Lechuza, self-watering pots, or drip systems). The 60% premium coco coir acts like a high-performance wick, lifting moisture evenly up to the root zone, while the 40% clay pebbles create permanent air pockets. Your plants get constant hydration without ever sitting in stagnant, oxygen-starved mud.
2. As a Premium "Chunky Mix" Soil Upgrade (The Ultimate Amendment)
Don't want to grow hydroponically? Use this bag as a premium structural additive to supercharge your standard peat or compost potting soils. Mixing this genuine CANNA blend into ordinary houseplant soil instantly mimics a professional, chunky forest-floor environment. It introduces permanent drainage channels and coarse texture, preventing heavy soils from compacting over time.
Perfect For High-Value Collectors & Moisture-Sensitive Species:
Whether used raw in a self-watering pot or mixed into standard compost, this clean, pathogen-free blend is the ultimate insurance policy for sensitive, rot-prone tropicals:
- Rare Alocasias & Jewel Alocasias: (Black Velvet, Frydek, Poly — absolutely explode in semi-hydro setups where moisture is constant but oxygen is high)
- Anthuriums & Velvet-Leaf Philodendrons: (Thrive when roots can cling to coarse clay pebbles and airy coco fibers)
- Orchids & Epiphytic Plants: (Mimics the airy, bark-like tree environments they naturally grow in)
- Hoyas & Peperomias: (Highly sensitive to waterlogging; benefits massively from the rapid dry-out cycle of clay pebbles)
Key Features & Cultivation Benefits:
- 60/40 Flipped Ratio for Better Retention: Higher coco content means it doesn't dry out bone-dry in minutes, making it highly forgiving for indoor growers.
- RHP-Certified Professional Quality: Completely clean, lightly buffered, and free from soil-borne pathogens or pests from day one.
- Permanent, Uncollapsible Structure: Unlike perlite or bark, expanded clay pebbles never break down, float to the top, or rot. The aeration you get on day one is the exact same aeration you have years later.
- Boutique Sizes to Bulk Trade Sacks: Hand-decanted into convenient smaller volumes (1L, 5L, 10L, 20L) perfect for upgrading a few prized plants on an indoor shelf, up to original bulk trade sacks (50L).
How to Use:
- For Semi-Hydro / Self-Watering Pots: Fill your container, gently anchor the clean roots of your plant into the mix, and fill the water reservoir below with a weak, balanced liquid hydroponic nutrient solution (as this medium is naturally inert).
- For Soil Amending (The DIY Upgrade): Mix 1 part CANNA 60/40 Blend with 2 parts of your standard houseplant potting soil. Blend thoroughly to instantly create an open, fluffy, free-draining gourmet aroid mix.
