Description
Coco-Wet Organic Wetting Agent is a specialized solution formulated to improve the water absorption and distribution properties of your growth media, whether you're working with coco coir, soil, or hydroponic systems. This unique wetting agent helps break the surface tension of water, ensuring that it penetrates evenly and thoroughly through your growing medium. It's a valuable tool for gardeners seeking to maximize the efficiency of nutrient and water uptake by plants.
Key Features:
Enhanced Water Penetration: Coco-Wet significantly improves the ability of water to disperse evenly and reach all parts of the root zone, even those typically hard to wet.
Improved Nutrient Distribution: Proper hydration of your medium leads to more uniform nutrient distribution and helps prevent dry spots.
Increased Oxygen Exchange: Better moisture distribution supports healthy root systems, providing oxygen where it's needed most.
Organic and Environmentally Friendly: This product is derived from natural and sustainable sources, making it suitable for organic gardening practices.
Works with All Growth Media: Whether you're cultivating in coco coir, soil, or hydroponics, Coco-Wet is compatible with various growing media.
Benefits of Using Coco-Wet:
Optimized Water Management: Coco-Wet ensures that your medium retains moisture more efficiently, reducing water waste and the risk of over or underwatering.
Improved Nutrient Efficiency: With better water distribution, plants can access nutrients more effectively, promoting healthier growth.
Increased Oxygen Levels: Adequate moisture is vital for roots to access oxygen. Coco-Wet facilitates this process, resulting in stronger and more robust plants.
Easy to Apply: Simply add Coco-Wet to your regular watering regimen to enhance moisture distribution.
Consistent Results: Enjoy more consistent and predictable outcomes in your garden by ensuring your plants receive the right amount of moisture.
Applications:
Regular Watering: Incorporate Coco-Wet into your standard watering schedule, and apply as needed to ensure even moisture distribution.
Hydroponics: This product can be used in hydroponic systems to maintain optimal moisture levels and nutrient distribution.
Propagation: Coco-Wet can aid in the propagation of seeds and cuttings, as uniform moisture is essential for successful rooting.
Coco-Wet Organic Wetting Agent is a valuable addition to any gardener's toolkit. It empowers growers to maintain consistent and efficient moisture levels in their growing medium, leading to improved nutrient absorption and overall plant health. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced gardener, Coco-Wet offers a straightforward solution to enhance your gardening efforts and yield healthier, more productive plants.

INFORMATION QUESTIONS
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What is Hydroponics?
Hydroponics is the science of growing plants without soil. The plants thrive on the nutrient-water solution alone. The growing medium merely acts as a support for the plants and their root systems while the solution passes freely. The growing medium, if any, is totally inert.
What types of plants grow best hydroponically?
Anything can be grown hydroponically, but some plants prove to be more space efficient. Some plants we suggest are tomatoes, sweet peppers, hot chilies, lettuce, spinach, squash, cucumbers, broccoli, beans, snow peas, herbs and flowers of all types.
Can you REALLY get better yields/quicker growth?
Absolutely. The plants, when receiving everything they need, tend to be healthier, faster growing and generally more productive. You can expect 30% faster growth with many crops.
What are the watering cycle timelines hydroponic systems?
Once the reservoir is filled with nutrients, it is time to put your hydro system to work! The ease of hydroponics is automation – automation is achieved by putting the pump on a timer according to your watering needs. The watering cycle depends on growth stage, growing medium and hydroponic system. In an ebb and flow or drip system with rockwool as the medium, seedlings, clones and plants in the early vegetative stage require watering only once a day for 15-30 minutes (twice a day for higher temps). Mature, flowering and fruiting plants require a heavier feed and can be fed once a day for 30 minutes (twice a day for higher temps). Typically soiless mixes and coco fiber can be watered for about 15 minutes twice a day, and can be adjusted for heavier feeding during the flowering and fruiting stage or higher temps. ViaStone, Hydroton, Grow Rocks, and Silicate mediums need to be watered more frequently – a constant drip for drip systems, and about 15-30 minutes every 3 hours for ebb and flow systems and can be adjusted for heavier feeding during the flowering and fruiting stage or higher temps. Aeroponic systems require frequent watering cycles; 30-60 seconds every few minutes or a constant spray.
What do I need to test pH? How do I test pH?
pH has a range from 0 (acidic) – 14 (alkaline), with 7 being neutral. A proper hydroponic pH range is between 5.5 to 6.2 for most hydroponic crops. For specific crop pH, check out our Plant Guide. pH must remain within the proper range for good plant health, disease resistance, and proper nutrient uptake. pH is maintained by adding pH Up and pH Down to the nutrient solution. For more information, see the Testssection of our site.
How will the flavor compare to my outdoor grown, organic produce?
The taste may be even better! This is simply due to the fact that the hydroponically grown plants are getting everything they need, when they need it. Don’t be fooled by “hot house” produce grown commercially. The grower’s primary concern is shipability and storage, not flavor. When you grow your own vegetables at home, you can expect nothing less than excellent results. Plus, hydroponically grown produce has the added benefit of a longer shelf life.
