Hi sir, Thanks for the awesome video. I have a query around recycling green coconut. We are a family of 5 who have green coconut water each day, so 5 green coconut shells go to waste from our household each day. I do not like recyclable material like coconut shell going to landfill and want to use it in my garden. I have tried composting coconut shells but they take so much time that it doesnt make sense as I can use that space in my compost bin for vegetable waste. Is there a way to use these green coconut shells? Thanks again for your replies on comments and the awesome videos.

[@organicgardening]

Dear sir, Thank you for your kind query. Sir, coconut shel is a good option for using in self garden. I personally cut them in chips and after drying use bottom at pot to cover drainage holes. We can use them as orchid pots also. Thank you

Thank you and appreciate your information. can I know if growing ginger with cocopeat, how much the ppm should be reach ? Need to check on EC value ? Is it the PPM less than 200 is good to use for all veggie or fruit?

[@organicgardening]

Dear Kei Yean Liang, Thank you for your kind appreciation and query. - We can grow ginger in cocpeat and it will help to get it bigger shape. - here we are feeling difficulties to understand your query. Is it related to hydroponic? Please explain it more to understand so that we can suggest best for you. Thank you

[@keiyeanliang5410]

Thank for your feedback. I’m plant to grow ginger with cocopeat by using dripping fertigation system. On your video information, it’s not recommend to use cocopeat directly growing plants. It need to wash cocopeat for few times to remove the salt level. Is it any calculation on these method, i.e. 10kg cocopeat, need to use 1 litre of water to wash? Or can I rinse the cocopeat for 15 minutes, then test on the water ppm? On which ppm level is good to grow or ginger? Do I need to check on the EC value of the water as well? I’m really appreciate your information. Thanks.

[@organicgardening]

Dear@@keiyeanliang5410 , Thank you for kind information. If we will wash cocopeat more then one or two time with this method then it's PPM value would be automatically come between 150 to 200 TDS. So we can skip other things. - For ginger or all Vegetables if TDS value is below 200 is best. And letter we can control it by adding nutrients. - ginger also can be easily grow in this value but we need to add other nutrients as per plant growing stages and it may be between 300 to 900 for good growth. Thank you
