Green Planet's Coco 60/40 Chips is the middle ground of the coco range — RHP-certified, fully buffered coco blended 60:40 with coarse coco chips in a 53L bag. The chips create bigger air pockets than fine coco, so roots get more oxygen and the mix drains faster than straight coco — but it still holds more moisture than a 70:30 perlite blend, so you water less often. The result is a durable, high-structure medium built for aggressive root development, and the chips hold their shape run after run instead of compacting.
Specifications
- Picking a blend: 100% Professional Coco for maximum moisture retention, 60/40 Chips for the aeration-moisture middle ground, 70/30 Perlite for the fastest-draining option.
- All coco binds calcium and magnesium — run a Cal-Mag supplement like Pro Cal from the first feed.
- The chunky structure suits drippers well — high-frequency, small-volume feeds play to its drainage.

FAQ
What's the difference between 60/40 Chips and 70/30 Perlite?
The aeration comes from coarse coco chips instead of perlite. 60/40 holds more moisture between feeds and keeps a stronger, reusable structure; 70/30 drains fastest. Both are RHP-certified buffered coco underneath.
Do I need Cal-Mag with it?
Yes. Like all coco, it binds calcium and magnesium as it charges up — run a Cal-Mag supplement such as Pro Cal from the first feed to stay ahead of deficiencies.
Is it ready to use out of the bag?
Yes. It's washed, fully buffered, pH stable, and low EC out of the bag — no pre-treatment needed beyond a pre-wet with your nutrient solution.
Can I reuse it?
Yes. The chips hold their shape run after run, so the mix resists compaction and keeps performing across multiple cycles — flush it well between runs.
Does it work with drip systems?
Yes. The high-structure, fast-draining mix suits automated drip setups as well as hand watering, in pots and beds alike.
