The Perfect Mix
The perfect mix of 70% coco coir and 30% perlite for optimum aeration, pre-blended with Ecothrive Charge for an unbeatable biological boost. With Ecothrive Coco Lite you can enjoy all the benefits of Ecothrive Charge straight out of the bag.
Powered by Charge
Ecothrive Coco Lite uses RHP certified, buffered coco that has been pre-blended with Ecothrive Charge at 1% by volume. This mixing ratio makes it ideal for almost all applications.
Increased Drainage and Air Space
Perlite increases the amount of air within the mix and reduces the water holding capacity. This creates a lighter mix with better drainage and improved resistance to compaction. Plants grown in Ecothrive Coco Lite will be far less prone to the effects of over-watering than pure coco coir.
Easy to Use
Simply pour out the bag into a pot, break any compressed lumps, settle the mix by tapping edges and base of pot, and plant up.

Frequently Asked Questions
When to Start Feeding?
Due to the slow nutrient release from the Charge in the Ecothrive Coco Lite Mix, you can start feeding with your nutrient program from day one. Start with a low EC around 1.2 and always use a coco-specific nutrient formula.
When using Ecothrive Coco Lite Mix for your final potting stage, you can add more Charge into the mix at the rate of 10ml per L to provide more nutrients and a bigger boost.
For best results use in combination with Ecothrive Biosys on each potting stage, and once every 1-2 weeks thereafter.
