Treating Coir Pith Biologically for Premium Nursery Potting Mixtures

Coir pith is excellent for nursery beds because it holds moisture incredibly well. However, raw, untreated coir pith often contains high levels of natural salts and tannins that can stunt root growth, and it can carry dormant weed seeds or harmful fungi.

Before using coir pith for your delicate seedlings, you should treat it biologically. Wet the pith thoroughly and mix it with Pseudomonas fluorescens and organic decomposers, then let it rest for two weeks. This simple process flushes out harmful tannins, neutralizes salts, and fills the potting medium with helpful bacteria that protect your young seedlings from root rot diseases.
