What Is SONG THOM Washed Coco Peat Brick 500G?

SONG THOM Washed Coco Peat Brick 500G is produced from natural coco peat obtained from coconut husks.

The raw material is processed and washed before being dried and compressed into a compact 500g brick.

Compression significantly reduces the volume of the product during storage and transportation. When water is added, the compressed brick gradually absorbs moisture, softens and expands back into loose coco peat.

Once completely loosened, the material can be used as a growing substrate or mixed with other growing-media components according to the requirements of different crops.

Its compact format makes the product convenient for nurseries, growers, garden centers and users who need a practical way to store coco peat before use.

Washed Coco Peat With Low EC

One of the most important characteristics of SONG THOM Coco Peat Brick is that the raw coco peat has already been processed before compression.

Untreated coco peat may contain soluble salts and naturally occurring compounds that need to be controlled before the material is introduced into the root zone.

Low EC makes the material more suitable for use in controlled growing-media formulations, especially where growers need better management of the root-zone environment.

The product also has a pH range of 5.5–6.8, making it compatible with many common horticultural applications.

Because the coco peat is already washed and processed, users can avoid the long washing process normally required when working with untreated raw coco peat.

This helps:

• Reduce preparation time.
• Simplify substrate preparation.
• Provide more consistent input material.
• Reduce the risk of using improperly treated raw coco peat.
• Make the product easier to incorporate into growing-media formulations.

Compact 500G Brick – Expands To More Than 7.5 Liters

The dry product is compressed into a dense 500g brick, allowing a considerable reduction in storage volume compared with loose coco peat.

After sufficient water is added and the material is completely loosened, one brick can provide more than 7.5 liters of coco peat.

Compact Before Use

Compressed bricks occupy significantly less space than an equivalent volume of loose substrate.

Easy To Store

Multiple bricks can be stored in a relatively small area and hydrated only when needed.

Convenient Handling

The 500g format makes it easier to prepare coco peat in smaller batches instead of opening and storing large bags of loose growing media.

Efficient Volume After Hydration

A compact 500g brick provides more than 7.5 liters of loose coco peat after expansion.

For growers, retailers and horticultural users, this provides a practical balance between compact transportation and usable substrate volume.

Lightweight And Porous Growing Media

After hydration and loosening, coco peat forms a light and porous growing-media structure.

The spaces between coco peat particles help reduce excessive compaction in the growing medium while allowing air to move through the root zone.

At the same time, coco peat helps retain moisture within the substrate.

This balance between moisture retention and substrate porosity is one of the main reasons coco peat is widely used as a component in horticultural growing media.

SONG THOM Washed Coco Peat can be used alone for selected applications or blended with other materials depending on crop requirements.

• Clean soil.
• Vermicompost.
• Organic fertilizer.
• Carbonized rice husk.
• Perlite.
• Vermiculite.
• Coco husk chips.
• Other horticultural substrate materials.

Growers can adjust the formulation according to desired water retention, drainage, aeration and crop type.

Main Advantages Of SONG THOM Coco Peat Brick

1. Washed And Ready For Substrate Preparation

The coco peat has already undergone processing before compression, reducing the additional preparation required compared with untreated raw coco peat.

2. Low EC Below 0.5 mS/cm

Low electrical conductivity makes the product suitable for a wide range of horticultural growing-media applications where soluble salt levels need to be controlled.

3. pH Range Of 5.5–6.8

The pH range is suitable for incorporation into many common growing-media formulations.

4. More Than 7.5 Liters From One 500g Brick

The compressed format reduces storage volume while providing a useful quantity of loose substrate after hydration.

5. Lightweight And Porous Structure

Expanded coco peat helps improve the physical structure of growing media and supports air movement around the root zone.

6. Moisture Retention

Coco peat can retain moisture within the growing medium, helping create a more stable root-zone environment when used correctly.

7. Multiple Horticultural Applications

One product can be incorporated into different substrate formulations for seedlings, vegetables, flowers, ornamental plants and other container-grown crops.

Applications Of SONG THOM Washed Coco Peat

SONG THOM Coco Peat Brick can be used in a variety of horticultural applications.

Seed Starting

The fine and lightweight structure of expanded coco peat makes it suitable as a component of seed-starting media.

Seedling Nurseries

Coco peat can be incorporated into nursery substrates where moisture management and a loose root-zone structure are required.

Microgreens

Expanded coco peat can be distributed easily across growing trays and used as a substrate component for microgreen production.

Leafy Vegetables

Coco peat can be mixed with soil, organic fertilizer, vermicompost and aeration materials for vegetables grown in pots, trays or containers.

Flowers

It can be used as a component in growing-media formulations for different flowering plants.

The final blend should be adjusted according to each plant’s drainage and moisture requirements.

Ornamental Plants

Coco peat helps create a lightweight substrate structure and can be blended with other materials for indoor and outdoor ornamental plants.

Strawberries

It can be combined with coco chips, perlite or other appropriate materials to modify water retention and aeration in strawberry growing media.

Container-Grown Plants

The compressed 500g format is particularly convenient when growers need to prepare smaller batches of substrate for pots and containers.

How To Use SONG THOM Coco Peat Brick 500G

Step 1 – Place The Brick In A Suitable Container

Put the 500g coco peat brick into a bucket, tub or container large enough to hold the material after expansion.

Remember that one brick can produce more than 7.5 liters of loose coco peat.

Step 2 – Add Clean Water Gradually

Pour clean water slowly over the compressed brick.

Adding water gradually helps the outer and inner portions of the brick absorb moisture more evenly.

Step 3 – Allow The Brick To Expand

Wait until the compressed coco peat begins to soften and separate.

Allow sufficient time for water to penetrate the remaining compressed center.

Step 4 – Loosen The Coco Peat

Use your hands or a suitable tool to break apart the softened material.

Continue loosening until the coco peat has an even, fluffy structure.

If dry compressed sections remain, add a small amount of additional water and allow them to hydrate.

Step 5 – Use Or Mix With Other Substrate Materials

Once fully expanded, the coco peat can be used according to the selected growing-media formulation.

Depending on crop requirements, growers may combine it with:

• Soil.
• Vermicompost.
• Organic fertilizer.
• Rice husk.
• Perlite.
• Vermiculite.
• Coco chips.

Coco Peat Brick Vs. Loose Coco Peat

Both formats can be suitable for horticultural applications.

Compressed coco peat is particularly useful when storage efficiency and compact handling are priorities.

Important Note About Plant Nutrition

Coco peat is primarily a growing-media material, not a complete fertilizer.

Its main role is to contribute to:

• Substrate structure.
• Moisture retention.
• Root-zone porosity.
• Growing-media formulation.

For crops grown for longer periods, an appropriate nutrient program should still be provided.

The nutrient requirement will depend on the crop, growth stage, irrigation method and other materials used in the substrate.

Storage Recommendations

• Keep unused coco peat bricks in a dry location.
• Protect the compressed bricks from unnecessary exposure to water or excessive moisture before use.
• Once hydrated, use or store the expanded coco peat according to normal horticultural substrate management practices.
