Coir & preparation
Washing or buffering?
A low EC result and a buffering treatment answer different questions. Confirm both on the product specification before deciding how to prepare your cocopeat.

How should I specify growbag dimensions and tolerances?
State whether dimensions refer to the compressed or prepared product.

Why the root zone matters
A coir slab changes during hydration, so a single unqualified dimension can create misunderstandings.
01 / OBSERVE
Three checks before you change anything
- Identify the measurement stage and preparation method.
- Agree which length, width and height measurements are critical to the layout.
- Document acceptable variation and the method used to measure representative units.
02 / NARROW IT DOWN
Which dimension matters most?
Choose the closest observation for a suggested next check.
Bench fit
Specify the prepared footprint and check it against the supporting surface.
Plant spacing
Confirm the relationship between bag length and planned planting positions.
Packing fit
Record compressed dimensions separately from the growing dimensions.
03 / TAKE THE NEXT STEP
Leave with something useful
Approve a dimension drawing and trial sample before ordering custom units.
Keep in mind
Do not treat compressed thickness as the final root-zone height.
