coconut bran matrix, many netizens may not know. But I said that soilless cultivation has probably been heard of. This coconut bran matrix is also a form of soilless cultivation mode, such as hydroponics, fog culture , which are both used soilless cultivation. This coconut bran substrate cultivation is different from hydroponics and mist cultures, and requires very advanced equipment. However, matrix cultivation seems to be similar to soil cultivation, but there is no nutrient in the coconut bran matrix, which is the biggest feature of coconut bran matrix.
coconut bran matrix. The picture above is the coconut bricks I planted at home last year. It can be soaked in water before use. This is also very convenient. After soaking a piece of coconut brick, there are about as many as a washbasin. The price per piece is about 5-10 yuan, and the regulations seem to be a little cleaner. The actual use effect is not very big, it can basically be ignored!
The biggest disadvantage of coconut bran is that it contains very little nutrients, which is sufficient for the growth needs of the seedling stage. In other words, no matter what is planted, the premise is that a certain amount of fertilizer must be mixed into the coconut bran. My suggestion is to sprinkle it directly into balanced compound fertilizer, so that the plants need basic nutrients. Then, according to the later growth conditions, apply some elemental fertilizer in a targeted manner.
This is the effect of the first crop planting. Judging from the growth of seedlings and the germination of seeds, the effect is still very good. Next, let’s talk about the key points, that is, what changes will happen after one year of use of coconut bran matrix?
This is the coconut bran matrix that has been planted for about a year. Let’s see how it performs differently? Basically, the silky substance of coconut bran disappeared, and it seemed to have turned into soil. In other words, the air permeability of coconut bran itself will become very poor, which is very unfavorable for the root growth of the crop. It has indeed been verified at this point, that is, a kind of flower I have in the flower pot, and its root system has a problem with rot. Another point is that the water seepage is also very poor. After you water it, the water will basically not flow out from the bottom of the flower pot and will gather in the flower pot. This will make the flower pot waterlogged, which will also affect the growth of the root system.
It can be basically seen from this seedling that it is not growing very well. I have also seen its root system, and it is indeed a bit of a problem, but it is quite a lot. Later, I compared another pot, which was also cultivated by coconut bran matrix. But there is no problem. The ones planted in it are morning glory and aloe vera , which are both growing very well. Moreover, morning glory has bloomed a lot, so why is the difference so big? I did find out about this reason.
are also grown from coconut bran matrix. Do my aloe vera and morning glory grow very well? These are all planted on indoor balcony and are all in the same condition. Whether it is watering or fertilizing, it is the same. The different reasons are the question of how much coconut bran is concentrated in the flower pot. In the pots where aloe vera and morning glory are planted, the coconut bran matrix is relatively full. However, there are fewer substrates for planting bean seedlings. In other words, the problem of underwater seepage and root growth depth. If the matrix is placed more and the excess water is at the bottom, the root system will be easily soaked. For those with few substrates, the roots basically grow in water, so the root system will rot in the long run.
Summary:
Flower pot uses coconut bran matrix to plant flowers or vegetables. Be sure to choose a larger or deep flower pot. This will help water infiltration and sufficient oxygen supply, so that the root system of the crop will grow better. For the service life of the matrix, it can basically last for 1-2 years. Otherwise, the coconut bran matrix will become no longer breathable, which is its biggest disadvantage. For family flower planting, there are many coconut bran substrates, first of all, growing vegetables is still good. After planting one crop, you can pour out the coconut bran and dry it for disinfection or use potassium permanganate for disinfection. You can continue to use it, but you can't do this in planting flowers.
Finally, if you have any questions about the use of coconut bran matrix, you can also leave a message in the comment area. I will answer every question in charge, hoping it can help everyone.
