Step 1- Before putting to use, soak the Coco Coir wrapped pole. Doing this breaks up the surface tension and get rids of any hydrophobic tendencies of the dehydrated coco coir and allows the coir to hold and draw up humidity for the plant more easily.
Step 2-Combine pot, plant, pole & soil -If it’s more aesthetically pleasing to you to to put the pole at the back of the pot and the plant to the front or put the pole in the center of the pot and arrange a multi stem plant all around the pole. Either way as the plant grows in and the leaves get larger the coco pole will be less noticeable.
Step 3- Attach the plant to the pole - use zip ties or jute twine as it’s reusable and won’t harm emerging leaves or unhardened growth.
Step 4-Drench the pole -Place the pot, plant and pole under warm (room temp) water and let it run off, through and saturate both soil and pole. Whenever you water, make sure to get the pole wet as well.
Depending on the humidity level in your home, you may need to mist the pole and emerging aerial roots once or twice daily. Unless you have adequate airflow we would not recommend getting leaves wet, especially at night as it may promote fungal growth on leaves.
Description :
Coco pole is a supporting pole for potted plant creepers to grow in-door as well as out-door gardens.
It is perfect for climbing plants, vine plants, creepers which have aerial roots, particularly from Araecea family such as, Philodendrons, Monsteras, pothos, Scindapsus , Rhaphidophoras, Syngonium, Peace Lily, Dieffenbachia and Alocasia .The high moisture retention capacity of the stick enables the roots of the plant to grip natural organic mattress of coir fiber. By watering or misting the coco pole regularly, the aerial roots are able to collect water and nutrients. Plants that are potted in the traditional way provide little or no water or nutrition through the aerial roots, whereas a plant on a coco pole has it’s terrestrial roots AND aerial roots fully focused on helping the plant grow. This results in the plant growing much more vigorously.
100% environmental friendly, bio degradable coconut fibers are used for manufacture this ideal plant support and growing aid products. Its high water holding capacity ensure the plant grow stronger.
Material : Coir with PVC pipe
Color : Brown & Green
Note: Coco Poles are available in different lengths and it could be manufactured in customized sizes to suit the customer specifications.
