We are offering Coco Peat Blocks.

Respirators meet the CDC Guidelines for Mycobacterium tuberculosis exposure control. They are certified by NIOSH as N95's and designed to provide a secure face-to-respirator seal. This seal helps reduce the wearer's exposure to airborne particles, making them appropriate for protection from laser and electrocautery plume.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, face masks have been employed as a public and personal health control measure against the spread of SARS-CoV-2. Their use is intended as personal protection to prevent infection and as source control to limit transmission of the virus in a community or healthcare setting. The World Health Organization and other public health organisations agree that masks can limit the spread of respiratory viral diseases such as COVID-19.

As of early May 2020, 88% of the world's population lived in countries that recommend or mandated the use of masks in public; more than 75 countries had mandated the use of masks.

A surgical mask is a loose-fitting, disposable device that creates a physical barrier between the mouth and nose of the wearer and potential contaminants in the immediate environment. If worn properly, a surgical mask is meant to help block large-particle droplets, splashes, sprays, or splatter that may contain viruses and bacteria, keeping it from reaching the wearer's mouth and nose. Surgical masks may also help reduce exposure of the wearer's saliva and respiratory secretions to others.

Surgical masks made to different standards in different parts of the world have different ranges of particles which they filter. For example, the People's Republic of China regulates two types of such masks: single-use medical masks (Chinese standard YY/T 0969) and surgical masks (YY 0469). The latter ones are required to filter bacteria-sized particles (BFE ≥ 95%) and some virus-sized particles (PFE ≥ 30%), while the former ones are required to only filter bacteria-sized particles. 

Coco peat (coco-peat), also known as coir pith, coir fibre pith, coir dust, or simply coir, is made from coconut husks, which are by-products of other industries that use coconuts. Coir waste from coir fibre industries is washed, heat-treated, screened and graded before being processed into coco peat products of various granularity and denseness, which are then used for horticultural and agricultural applications and as industrial absorbent.

Usually shipped in the form of compressed bales, briquettes, slabs or discs, the end user usually expands and aerates the compressed coco peat by the addition of water. A single kilogram of coco peat will expand to 15 litres of moist coco peat.

The Advantage of COCO PEAT:

• The properties of Coco Peat make it resistant to bacterial and fungal growth.
• Coco Peat holds water rather than shedding it like traditional peat does! It holds 8-9 times its weight in water.
• Coco Peat has the ability to store and release nutrient to plants for extended periods of time. It also has great oxygenation properties which is important for healthy root development.
• Enhanced root penetration
• Coco peat extends the life of compost.
• Contains natural substances and beneficial microbes for plant growth
• The coco peat tends to expand in its volume, (i.e., ) Four to five times from its original volume provided.
• It has a pH of 5.2-6.8 which is neutral to slightly acidic. This makes it great for alkaline garden soils.
• Easy to use – Just put your compressed Coco Peat brick in a container, add 4 quarts of warm water and let it sit until the water is absorbed, fluff it up and you are ready to use Coco Peat!
• Coco Peat can be reused for up to 4 years.
• Coco Peat is very slow to disintegrate; it only begins to break down when it is 10 years old, long term benefits.
• It is very light and easy to handle.
• It can be combined with any of the normal ingredients and use as a mixer or a stand-alone product.
• Weed free, pathogen free, insect free and odourless
• Excellent medium for growing worms.  It’s actually good for them and increases worm growth by 25%.
• Has high air-filled porosity
• Much lighter than soil
• Mixed with sand, compost and fertilizer to make good quality potting soil
• Environment friendly and non-hazardous

How to use coco-peat:

The normal use of coco-peat in foreign country are the use of coco-peat block form. Then if we need to expand the whole block later immerse the block in a large tub capable of holding at least 25 litres of water. Remove the wet expanded cocopeat that floats in the water. While continuing to add water to the tub till the complete block is expanded. The cocopeat in the bag are light in weight and easily transported to the nursery area or rain shelter greenhouse. For a large grower who needs to expand large number of cocopeat blocks, place the cocopeat blocks vertically with about 1 ft between them. Spray water from a hose on the cocopeat blocks while working on the blocks with hand to expand them into moist cocopeat. Another method is to use machinery to crush the block into powder and then use the dust.

The use of low compression cocopeat for absorption purposes, normally we advise the farmers to simply break and crush the block into powder in the palm of your hand. This method practical for those fragile cocopeat either for locally produced cocopeat or imported cocopeat. The use of cocopeat for potting mix we advise the user to mix the expanded cocopeat with leaf mould or homemade organic manure in the ratio of 1:1. Add red soil or sand in small quantities for large plants, otherwise the cocopeat will not be able to hold the weight of the plants as they grow. Red soil tends to compact over time (despite the cocopeat), so take care not to mix more than one third of the mix. For germination, mix cocopeat, leaf mould and sand in the ratio of 1:1:1. If you are using commercial organic manure, it would be better to mix cocopeat and organic manure in the ratio of 10:1 as commercial organic manures are often of high strength.

If the cocopeat are the hydroponics medium, the techniques for hydroponics it is better to thoroughly wash and buffer the cocopeat before use as most of the nutrient formula available on the web are not meant for growing in coir. First expand the cocopeat block as instructed earlier. Wash the expanded cocopeat in a large tub of soft water for a few minutes. Drain the water and repeat the process. If the cocopeat you bought is unwashed, you will have to repeat the process a couple of times more. Dissolve calcium nitrate in water in the ratio of 1 g per litre and allow the cocopeat to soak in the solution for 12 hours. Drain any remaining solution and wash the cocopeat again in soft water a couple of times. The cocopeat is now ready for use as a hydroponics medium. The use of cocopeat replaces the conventional use of topsoil as planting media. More new agriculture technologies are adapted and towards vertical farming system to increase per square meter productivity. The sowing technology today depends on cocopeat and peat moss as efficient and practical medium for seedling preparation.

Black pepper holds a unique space in the average North American home. After all, whereas other spices live tucked away in dark cupboards black pepper proudly stands in shakers and grinders on the kitchen counter or – holiest of holy places – the dining table in nearly every single home and restaurant. It’s the only spice that finds its way into nearly every single dish.

But what exactly is black pepper and where does it come from?

Peppercorns are the fruits of a flowering vine in the Piperaceae family. The green, wide-leafed vines grow long tendrils where cylindrical clusters of the berries ripen. The fruits are small containing a thin skin, very little actual fruit, and a single large seed. The fruits are picked at varying degrees of ripeness depending on the strength and type of pepper desired and then processed accordingly.

The vine is native to India but is grown in nearly every tropical region. Vietnam currently grows and exports the most-black pepper, totalling around 35% of the world’s supply, followed by India, Brazil, China and Sri Lanka. Used in practically every single style of cuisine imaginable pepper is the most traded spice worldwide and makes up 20% of the world’s total spice trade. In fact, the black pepper trade is worth billions of dollars annually!

Nitrile rubber gloves are made of synthetic rubber and used to protect your hands and products. They are mainly used at worksites where auto parts are handled and food processing plants. These gloves are available in various types with different thicknesses, lengths and sizes around the fingers and palms. They are made of rubber with excellent heat resistance, durability and abrasion resistance, and particularly boast outstanding oil and chemical resistance. With regard to chemical resistance, however, care is needed as the nature of resistance may vary with the type of chemical. Nitrile rubber gloves fit snugly, making you feel as if you were working with bare hands. They are also used as a measure against natural rubber allergy. Should these gloves be torn, the tear will spread widely so that you will notice immediately. 

Ocimum tenuiflorum (synonym Ocimum sanctum), commonly known as holy basil, is an aromatic perennial plant in the family Lamiaceae. It is native to the Indian subcontinent and widespread as a cultivated plant throughout the Southeast Asian tropics. 

Tulsi is cultivated for religious and traditional medicine purposes, and for its essential oil. It is widely used as a herbal tea, commonly used in Ayurveda, and has a place within the Vaishnava tradition of Hinduism, in which devotees perform worship involving holy basil plants or leaves.

Holy basil is an erect, many-branched subshrub, 30–60 cm (12–24 in) tall with hairy stems. Leaves are green or purple; they are simple, petioled, with an ovate, up to 5 cm (2.0 in)-long blade which usually has a slightly toothed margin; they are strongly scented and have a decussate phyllotaxy. The purplish flowers are placed in close whorls on elongate racemes. The two main morphotypes cultivated in India and Nepal are green-leaved (Sri or Lakshmi tulasi) and purple-leaved (Krishna tulasi).

Some of the phytochemical constituents of tulsi are oleanolic acid, ursolic acid, rosmarinic acid, eugenol, carvacrol, linalool, β-caryophyllene (about 8%).

Tulsi essential oil consists mostly of eugenol (70%) β-elemene (11.0%), β-caryophyllene (8%) and germacrene (2%), with the balance being made up of various trace compounds, mostly terpenes.
