Coco Coir Seed Starter Pellets — Wholesale Nursery Formats
Compressed coir starters for nursery propagation. Compare pellet dimensions, tray fit and netting before ordering in bulk.
Compressed from triple-washed fine coir pith at our own Tamil Nadu facility. The pellet can move with the root ball into a suitable final medium, reducing handling. Establishment depends on the crop and growing conditions. Ships from our Cambridge, Ontario warehouse across Canada, the USA, and Mexico.

Review pellet size, preparation and transplant requirements for your crop.
Check the hydrated size
Add water according to the supplied preparation instructions. Hydration time and expanded size depend on the pellet, water and conditions. Check hydration and the crop-specific preparation requirements before planting.
Less root handling
The pellet can be transplanted with the root ball into a suitable final medium. This may reduce root handling, but disturbance and recovery depend on the crop, timing and growing conditions.
Triple-washed, below 0.5 mS/cm
Freshly germinated seeds and young cuttings are extremely sensitive to salt stress. Our pellets are triple-washed to a consistently low EC — a starting point that must be qualified against the crop and batch specification.
Manage moisture and hygiene
Disease risk depends on material, handling and growing conditions. Follow an appropriate nursery hygiene and irrigation programme; coir alone does not establish protection from damping-off or stem rot.
Your choice, either way
Standard netted pellets hold their shape through germination and transplant. Naked pellets suit direct integration into hydroponic systems. Both formats available — specify at order.
