From Leamington's tomato and cucumber operations to BC's Fraser Valley berry sector and Alberta's expanding indoor ag market — no overseas wait, no import customs, no batch inconsistency.
US commercial greenhouse operations in California, Michigan, Ohio, New York, Texas, and Florida order direct from our Ontario warehouse. Cross-border shipping with full documentation — no duty surprises.
Mexico's protected-agriculture and greenhouse sector is growing fast and increasingly substrate-conscious. Avee is expanding shipping lanes into Mexico from our Ontario warehouse — contact us to confirm current freight availability and lead times.
Different crops need different substrate. Tomatoes need high AFP for intensive drip. Strawberries need stable moisture and low EC. Each Avee blend is formulated precisely for the crop and the growing region — Canada, USA, or Mexico.
🍅 TomatoesLeamington · Kingsville · NiagaraOntario's Leamington-Kingsville belt, US Midwest clusters, and Mexico's growing greenhouse sector all run intensive daily drip cycles. Our coarse chip-to-pith blend maintains high Air Filled Porosity throughout the season. Available in open-top configuration for crop steering.
🍓 StrawberriesFraser Valley · BC · OntarioFraser Valley and California berry growers need stable moisture, ultra-low EC, and a forgiving pH band. Our high-pith strawberry blend delivers consistent root zone conditions producing higher Brix and more uniform fruit — with full peat-free compliance for BC operations.
🥒 CucumbersOntario · BC · AlbertaCucumbers are unforgiving when moisture becomes inconsistent. Our cucumber blend balances drainage and moisture retention — preventing both overwatering and drought stress throughout the full growing season, from transplant to final pick.
🌶️ PeppersOntario · Alberta · QuebecCapsicum root zones thrive with even moisture distribution and hate waterlogged conditions. Our pepper substrate delivers the gentle, consistent moisture access that commercial pepper operations in Ontario, Alberta, California, and Mexico rely on for crop-long uniformity.
Most PopularPre-filled, crop-specific grow bags for commercial greenhouse production. Coarse, medium, and fine blends. Custom sizing for Ontario and BC gutter systems.
Exposed coir surface for accelerated dry-down between irrigations. Essential for high-wire tomato and cucumber crop steering into generative growth.
Blended at 20–30% to improve AFP and drainage in intensive greenhouse systems. Prevents compaction through long growing seasons.
Coco coir cubes for greenhouse seedlings and cuttings. Uniform moisture promotes batch-consistent root development — critical for commercial yield.
Commercial50L bags for operations filling large container volumes each season. Best cost-per-litre at scale. Open and use immediately — no prep required.
Bulk ValueCompressed 5kg blocks expanding to ~75L. Blend with husk chips to dial in the exact AFP and moisture profile your crop demands.
Most greenhouse operations still use rockwool. Here is why the switch to coco coir is accelerating — and why Avee's Ontario-stocked substrate makes the transition straightforward.

Not another import reseller. We own the supply chain from South India to your greenhouse door — across all three markets.
Cambridge warehouse has inventory ready. You order, we ship the same week. No overseas container waits, no customs surprises. The rest of the market imports on demand — we don't.
Distinct pith-to-chip ratios for each crop type — matching the AFP, drainage, and moisture profile each crop requires in Canadian, US, and Mexican greenhouse conditions. Not one-size-fits-all.
Older Ontario and BC greenhouse builds often have non-standard gutter widths. We cut bags to your exact specifications — no adapter rails, no workarounds.
EC, pH, and buffering tested on every production run — not random spot checks. Your crops never suffer from high-salt or under-buffered substrate. Certificates available on request.
Full cross-border documentation and freight options for US commercial greenhouse operations. Mexico shipping lanes are expanding — contact us to confirm current availability for your region.
We source from our own manufacturing in South India and stock in Ontario. Zero distributor markups — two to three fewer margin layers than any import reseller. The savings go to you.
For high-wire tomato production in Leamington and Ontario, use a coarse chip-to-pith blend in open-top grow bags. The coarser structure maintains high Air Filled Porosity under intensive daily drip irrigation — preventing root asphyxiation during peak production. Avee bags are sized for Ontario standard gutters, with custom dimensions available for older greenhouse builds.
Fraser Valley strawberry growers need a high-pith blend with minimal husk chips for maximum moisture retention and ultra-low EC. Berry root zones are salt-sensitive and prefer stable, consistent moisture. Our strawberry blend is 100% peat-free — fully compliant with BC's evolving sustainability mandates for horticultural substrates.
No. Coco coir crosses the Canada-US border routinely under CUSMA/USMCA provisions, and Avee ships to US commercial greenhouse operations with full cross-border freight documentation included. Mexico shipping lanes are expanding — contact us at info@a-vee.com to confirm current availability and freight pricing for your region.
Yes. We supply custom-dimension grow bags for non-standard gutter widths common in older Ontario and BC greenhouse facilities. Provide your gutter width and we configure bags to exact specifications — no adapter rails or workarounds needed.
Properly maintained coco coir grow bags run for 2–3 full greenhouse seasons. After harvest, sterilize with hydrogen peroxide or enzyme solution, rinse, and re-buffer with cal-mag. This reduces your substrate cost per season by up to 60% compared to single-use rockwool.
Yes. All Avee products are 100% peat-free. Coconut coir is a renewable byproduct of coconut processing and meets BC's sustainability requirements for horticultural substrates. It is also compatible with organic certification schemes in Canada, the USA, and Mexico.
Open-top bags expose the coir surface to air for faster dry-down between irrigations — important for crop steering high-wire tomatoes into generative mode. Closed bags retain more moisture, better for strawberries and peppers that prefer consistent moisture without dry-down stress periods.
