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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"display: grid;
