Coconut coir is obtained from the coconut husk, which, through specific processing, is upcycled and transformed into a growing medium suitable for multiple crops. When discussing coconut coir substrates, it is worth specifying that they always consist of a blend made up of multiple components\u2014all derived from coconut\u2014but featuring different sizes and physical characteristics.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\" data-path-to-node=\"4\">We can identify 3 main elements: Peat\/Pith, Fiber, and Chips.<\/p>\n<ul data-path-to-node=\"5\">\n<li style=\"text-align: left;\">\n<p data-path-to-node=\"5,0,0\"><b data-path-to-node=\"5,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\">Peat or Pith<\/b> represents the component with the smallest particle size;
