Frequently Asked Questions About Coco Peat & Substrates
Why use coco peat instead of regular soil in Africa?
Coco peat offers weed- and pathogen-free growing, water retention 8x greater than sandy Sahel soils, a stable and controllable pH, and yields 2 to 3 times higher than open-field cultivation for vegetable crops.
How do I prepare coco peat for use in cultivation?
1) Soak 1 kg of the compressed block in 5L of water (it expands to 8-9L). 2) Rinse if EC is above 1.5 mS/cm. 3) Adjust pH to 5.5-6.5. 4) Optionally mix with 20-30% perlite. Arbre Bio Africa also supplies ready-to-use substrate.
How much does coco peat cost in Côte d'Ivoire?
Arbre Bio Africa offers dehydrated blocks (650g) starting at 1,500 FCFA, bulk bags (50kg) starting at 25,000 FCFA, and ready-to-use grow bags. Contact us at +225 05 00 55 25 25 for a personalized quote and volume discounts.
How long does coco peat last as a growing substrate?
A well-managed coco peat substrate lasts 2 to 3 growing cycles (12-18 months): rinsing between crops, disinfection, and EC/pH monitoring. At the end of its cycle, used coco peat makes an excellent organic amendment for tropical soils.
Does Arbre Bio Africa deliver substrates across Africa?
Yes, Arbre Bio Africa delivers coco peat, coco fiber, perlite, and vermiculite throughout West Africa: Côte d'Ivoire, Senegal, Ghana, Burkina Faso, Mali, Togo, and Benin. Training and agronomic technical follow-up are included.
