What
is a Grow bag?
A growbag is a large plastic bag filled with a growing medium
and used for growing plants, usually tomatoes or other salad crops. The growing
medium is usually based on a soilless organic material such as peat, coir,
composted green waste, composted bark or composted wood chips, or a mixture of
these. Various nutrients are added, sufficient for one season's growing, so
frequently only planting and watering are required of the end-user. Planting is
undertaken by first laying the bag flat on the floor or bench of the growing
area, then cutting access holes in the uppermost surface, into which the plants
are inserted.
Growbags were first produced in the 1970s for home use, but
their use has since spread into market gardening and farming. They come in
different sizes and formulations suited to specific crops.
Prior to the introduction of growbags greenhouse soil had to be
replaced or sterilized each season between crops to prevent a buildup of pests
and diseases in the ground. Commercial growers could steam sterilize their
ground, but this was not feasible for the amateur grower so growbags were
introduced. At the end of the season the plants are disposed of and the compost
spread over outdoor borders. The bags should not be reused
When coconut husk is processed to coir fiber, the emanating
by-products are “fiber” (1/3 of the husk) and “Coco Peat” (2/3 of the husk).
Coco peat is also called coir dust or coir peat or coir pith. Coco peat is
widely used as a growing medium in the horticulture industry and is a superior
alternative for Peat Moss. It also bears a very high water holding capacity and
gives maximum efficiency for fertilizer usage.
Coco Peat is subject to washing, sieving and drying before being
converted into the final product. It is pressed into different block sizes in
accordance with customer requirements and then shipped to requisite buyers.
Coco Peat and Husk chips are sometimes mixed in different ratios before
processing, and conversion into the final product depends on the type of
vegetation and customer requirement. In horticulture, Coco Peat is recommended
as a substitute for peat moss since it is free of bacterial and fungal spores.
It also sustains environmental damage unlike the ill effects of Peat mining.
