From the nineties onwards, coir-based growbags were introduced by several manufacturers, with varying success. At first, there were issues with the lifespan of the plastic, and the coir bags were considered too wet. However, the Sri Lankan and Indian plastics industry improved the quality of the plastic and increased its reliability. We are now able to guarantee the lifespan of the plastic for years to come. Recent product developments have also made growbags coarser and airier.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-27713\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dutchplantin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/cocopeat.jpg\" alt=\"cocopeat\" width=\"600\" height=\"286\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.dutchplantin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/cocopeat.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.dutchplantin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/cocopeat-300x143.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Between 2008 and 2011, we developed&nbsp;<strong>a&nbsp;new generation of Double Layer growbags<\/strong>, with coarse&nbsp;coco pith on top (for fast taking of the crop and&nbsp;a perfect&nbsp;horizontal rooting) and coco chips on the bottom (for uniform and easy drainage).&nbsp;We are now able to ensure even&nbsp;more air (or \u2018less water\u2019)&nbsp;at&nbsp;the bottom of the bag than at the top!
