Jiffy PRO7 Coco 70/30 – Houseplant & Calathea Soil Mix

Type: Unfertilised base with trace elements
No NPK fertiliser has been added, but the coco is charged with trace elements and beneficial Trichoderma to help roots establish. Start your own feeding from day one.

Jiffy PRO7 Coco 70/30

From Jiffy, with over 60 years of making premium substrates. A light, airy mix of 70% RHP-certified coco pith and 30% perlite, washed and buffered for a stable pH and low EC, with Active Trichoderma for healthier roots. The coco is produced in Jiffy's ISO 22000-certified facilities in Sri Lanka for consistent quality, bag after bag.

Why a 70/30 Mix?

• Even moisture: coco holds water evenly through the pot, so roots don't swing from soaked to bone dry.
• Air at the roots: the perlite and open coco fibre keep oxygen pockets open, reducing the risk of overwatering.
• Gnat-resistant: clean coco gives fungus gnats far less to breed in than standard peat compost.
• Faster rooting: trace elements and Trichoderma help young roots establish quickly.
• Peat-free and ready to use straight from the bag, with no compression.

Perfect For

• Calathea, Maranta and Stromanthe: prayer plants that need constant, even moisture
• Pothos, Scindapsus, heartleaf Philodendron and Syngonium
• Ferns, Fittonia and Peperomia
• Cuttings and propagation
• Hand-watered pots and drip-feed systems

Potting a Monstera, Alocasia or Anthurium? These chunky-rooted climbers want even more air around their roots. Jiffy PRO7 LECA & Coco 60/40 is the better match.

How to Use

1. Fluff it up: bags can settle in transit, so break up any lumps before potting.
2. Pot up: fill your pot, settle the mix by tapping the sides, and plant.
3. Pre-soak: water through with a three-quarter to full strength feed until it drains from the bottom.
4. Keep it off the runoff: don't leave pots sitting in drained water in the saucer.

Using drippers? Coco is best fed little and often, but fine particles can block drip lines, so fit a filter and check it regularly.

Before you buy: it needs a liquid feed from day one. Intense Nutrients Coco A&B is an affordable, reliable two-part feed made for coco.
