FAQs

  • Is peat free compost better than multi-purpose?

    Multipurpose compost can be peat based or peat free. Multipurpose peat free compost has been developed to be a good all-round garden product, suitable for a range of horticultural purposes, from growing tomatoes to using as a soil conditioner.

  • What is peat free multi-purpose compost?

    Peat free multi-purpose compost is a versatile growing medium for gardening that does not contain peat, which is traditionally derived from fragile peat bogs. Instead, peat free compost is made from sustainable and environmentally friendly materials like coir and other organic components. Peat free multi-purpose compost is suitable for a wide range of gardening uses, including potting, seeding, and vegetable growing.

  • What is the difference between peat free compost and multi-purpose compost?

    Multi-purpose composts are developed to meet a variety of horticultural purposes, from potting up plants to using as a soil conditioner. These are available in peat free or peat based mixes. Peat free multipurpose composts provide the same degree of flexibility in use as peat based mixes but are created without taking peat moss from fragile peat bogs.

  • Are peat free composts any good?

    Peat-free composts are excellent alternatives to traditional peat-based composts and have several advantages. Peat-free compost promotes sustainability by reducing the environmental impact of peat extraction from delicate ecosystems. They enhance soil health, support a diverse range of plants, and are safe for both gardeners and the environment. Farmers and professional growers across the UK and the globe now use coir to grow fruit and vegetables so it is a well-established medium. Always choose a high-quality peat free compost, such as the Coconut Compost Company range of coir based compost mixes.

People, and their plants, absolutely love it

Don't take our word for it, hear from the people that use coconut compost

“Well managed coconut compost provides an excellent environment for root development. Our experience with peat-based compost showed the results were inferior to coir due to the fact that peat is denser thus hindering healthy root development and root death. With careful water management, we are seeing extremely vigorous root growth which of course equates to a healthier stronger plant.”

Perthshire, Commercial Strawberry Grower

“Here at Mains of Errol Farm we have chosen coconut compost as our growing medium for the last 10 years for 4 main reasons, it's affordable, compact, productive and sustainable. A compact product allows savings from haulage right the way through to handling by hand on the farm. High productivity achieved using coconut compost in our experience comes from the medium's unparalleled ability to suspend a feed solution evenly from top to bottom throughout the height of our root structure.”

Jamie, Perthshire, Commercial Strawberry Grower

“Just add water - who knew! Really like this product as it is so simple to use and no need to lug great big bags of compost around which always spilled in the car making mess. It’s been great for my tomatoes and chillies – I just added my own fertiliser. So easy and highly recommend it.”

Sally, East Lothian, Gardener

“I live in a flat with not much light and used the coconut compost for sowing my herbs last year with the aid of a growlight and they are still going strong. I don’t have a garden and the box is really easy to store in a cupboard and there is minimal mess. Brilliant for town living.”

Caroline, Edinburgh, Indoor Gardener

“For seed sowing it is brilliant. Compressed and light to carry and only need to add warm water for it to expand. It couldn’t be easier and more practical. Thank goodness no more heavy bags to carry.”

Lucy, Edinburgh, Indoor Gardener
