At Botanicoir we use specially chosen particles sizes of coir pith, coir chips and short fibre to create the optimum environment for tomato plants, depending on grower preference and local climates. Grow bags for tomato crops are the most popular option, but we also offer bespoke products made specifically to your requirements. Our unique production techniques ensure that the coir slabs are homogenous across the whole growing area to aid crop steering and irrigation management. All mixes, dimensions and plastic can be customised to suit individual requirements.

Naked Slabs are most popular for growing…
Naked Slabs
Naked slabs are grow bags without plastic, for those tomato growers that want the flexibility of using bulk coir but the ease of having it provided in exactly the right size and shape for the container that will be used for growing.
Mix Specifications
Botanicoir offers a range of mixes for tomato crops incorporating coir pith, coir chips and short fibre in varied ratios to offer the required water content. Our substrate mixes are designed to encourage generative growing and promote healthy plants, whilst giving growers the ability to steer the crop. We recommend washed products for tomato growers to remove the naturally occurring sodium, chloride and potassium.
