Know before you buy
This specific blend balances moisture retention with essential aeration. The coco coir holds water for the roots, while the hydro clay prevents compaction and ensures the root zone receives adequate oxygen.
Yes, Cyco Coco & Clay is designed as a complete substrate for houseplants. Its RHP and RAL certified components provide a stable, high-quality environment for root development.
When used as a top dressing, the hydro clay layer creates a physical barrier that makes it difficult for fungus gnats to reach the moist soil to lay eggs. It also blocks light from reaching the surface, which inhibits the germination of weed seeds.
No, this is a base growing medium. While it is listed as a granular form, it does not contain pre-mixed nutrients, so you will need to provide a liquid or granular fertilizer separately based on your plant's specific needs.
It is highly effective for most houseplants, particularly those that benefit from improved drainage and aeration. However, always check the specific moisture requirements of your plant, as the clay content increases drainage compared to pure coco coir.
