Agril BioBoost Coco Chips — Trichoderma-Enriched 10–20mm Coconut Husk for Orchids and Aroids
BioBoost Coco Chips combine the macroporous drainage structure of 10–20mm coconut husk chunks with supplier-blended enrichments: a Trichoderma-based biological fungicide, plant-derived rooting hormone, and a balanced starter fertiliser — giving roots both the physical space to expand and the biological environment to establish faster.
Chip size 10–20mm. pH 5.5–6.8. Low EC. Sterile base. No additional fungicide treatment required for the first 6–8 weeks. Purpose-built for orchids, aroids, and epiphyte mixes where establishment speed and root health matter.
Agril BioBoost Coco Peat — Trichoderma-Enriched, Rooting Hormone & Starter Fertiliser Blended Growing Medium
BioBoost Coco Peat is premium pH-buffered coco peat pre-enriched with a Trichoderma-based biological fungicide, plant-derived rooting hormone, and a balanced starter fertiliser — delivering a substrate that actively supports root development, suppresses soil-borne pathogens, and provides early nutrition from day one. It is the ready-to-use choice for propagation, repotting aroids, and establishing newly potted tropicals.
pH buffered to 5.8–6.5. EC flushed to below 1.0 mS/cm prior to enrichment. Sterile base medium. No additional fungicide treatment required for the first 6–8 weeks of use.
Agril Coco Chips – Horticultural Grade 10–20mm Chunky Coconut Husk for Orchids and Aroids
Coco chips are coarse, chunky pieces of coconut husk that create large air pockets and fast-draining structure in any substrate blend. Unlike fine coco peat, chips provide macroporosity — the open channels roots need to breathe in container growing — while retaining enough moisture for healthy hydration between waterings.
Chip size 10–20mm. pH range 5.5–6.8. Low EC. Suitable for orchids, aroids, and any plant that demands an open-structure, chunky mix. Use at 30–50% by volume.
Agril Horticultural Grade Perlite (3–6mm) — Zip-lock Pouch
Most plant roots drown long before they dry out. Perlite is the simplest way to add instant drainage and essential air pockets to heavy potting soils, keeping your tropicals and succulents breathing comfortably.
These lightweight volcanic glass pearls prevent soil compaction while holding onto nutrients for slow release. It sits at a neutral pH, making it completely safe for sensitive roots. Just remember to dampen it before mixing—dry perlite dust isn't something you want to breathe in.
Agril Volcanic Substrate — Semi-Hydroponic Propagation Medium for Tissue Culture, Alocasia Corms and Stem Cuttings
Agril Volcanic Substrate is a porous, low-dust volcanic granule medium purpose-built for three high-precision growing situations: acclimating tissue culture plantlets from agar to soil conditions, rooting small stem cuttings in a semi-hydroponic environment, and germinating Alocasia corms where consistent moisture at the base and open aeration above it are both critical. Each granule holds moisture within its porous structure while maintaining stable air gaps between particles — giving roots the wet-dry cycling they need without the compaction risk of fine media.
pH approximately 6.5–7.0 (slightly acidic to neutral). Dark volcanic granule, 2–3mm particle size. Low dust — sieved before packing. Net weight 1 kg. Sterile. Suitable for semi-hydroponic passive reservoir setups, propagation trays, and transition containers.
Baked Rice Husk — Kiln-Dried Sterilised Rice Hull, Near-Neutral pH, Lightweight Drainage Amendment
Baked rice husk is kiln-dried and sterilised paddy hull — golden-tan in colour, not carbonised, retaining its natural silica-reinforced structure while being rendered sterile and weed-free. It provides lightweight bulk, modest drainage, and short-to-medium-term aeration in substrate blends. A practical, sustainable, and low-cost amendment derived from an agricultural by-product.
pH approximately 6.0–7.0 (near-neutral). Sterile. Lightweight. Gradually biodegradable over 12–18 months. Use at 15–25% by volume in tropical, seedling, and succulent substrate mixes. Refresh or repot substrate when breakdown is visible.
Burned Rice Husk — Carbonised Rice Hull Biochar, Permanent Drainage Amendment, Sterile
Burned rice husk is fully carbonised rice hull — a black, lightweight biochar material produced by controlled high-temperature combustion of paddy husks. Its porous carbon matrix improves drainage, increases aeration, and provides long-lasting physical structure in any substrate blend. Unlike organic amendments, carbonised rice hull does not decompose and contributes stable, permanent porosity to the mix.
pH approximately 7.0–8.5 (slightly alkaline). Sterile. Weed-free. Long-lasting structural amendment. Use at 10–20% by volume in mixed substrates. Pair with worm castings or fertiliser for nutrition — carbonised husk is not a nutrient source.
Clay Pellets (LECA) — Lightweight Expanded Clay Aggregate, Reusable, pH Neutral
Clay pellets — also known as LECA (Lightweight Expanded Clay Aggregate) — are kiln-fired clay spheres with a porous internal structure and a hard, stable outer shell. pH neutral, chemically inert, and reusable indefinitely with proper cleaning, they create excellent drainage channels, prevent substrate compaction, and work as a standalone semi-hydroponic medium or a structural drainage layer beneath finer media.
Particle size 8–16mm. pH neutral. Sterile. Suitable for semi-hydroponic growing, passive hydroponics, drainage layers, and open-structure aroid substrate blends.
Coco Peat — Horticultural Grade, pH Buffered, EC Flushed Growing Medium
Horticultural Charcoal — Sustainably Sourced Selected Hardwood, Toxin Adsorption, Terrarium Grade
Agril Horticultural Charcoal is produced by slow-burning selected hardwoods chosen specifically for their low resin content and clean burn profile — resulting in a pure, mineral-rich carbon amendment free from resinous contaminants. The porous carbon structure adsorbs excess salts, organic waste compounds, and volatile impurities that accumulate in closed or low-drainage container environments, helping maintain substrate freshness over time.
pH approximately 7.0–8.5. Sustainably sourced hardwood. Use at 5–10% in terrariums, closed systems, and any substrate where long-term hygiene and toxin control are priorities. Not a substitute for activated carbon in aquatic systems.
Sphagnum Moss — Long-Fibre Horticultural Grade, Air-Dried, High Water Retention
Sphagnum moss is a long-fibre, naturally acidic growing medium harvested and air-dried for horticultural use. Its hollow capillary fibre structure holds water at up to 20× its dry weight while maintaining sufficient airflow around roots — a balance very few substrates achieve. Slightly acidic pH (4.0–5.0) makes it well-suited for moisture-loving, acid-preferring plants.
Long-fibre horticultural grade. pH 4.0–5.0. Air-dried. Ideal for Monsteras, Anthuriums, Hoyas, terrariums, moss poles, and orchid mounting. Soak for 5–10 minutes before use.
