I've been using coco peat quite a while & its good in that it mainly improves the structure of clayish soils & adds some retentive capabilities to sandy soils. & its a cheaper alternative than things like perlite etc… which are more expensive & often industrial grade & not agricultural.
its not something so easily available abroad & don't think it would be this cheap there : )
So, to my thinking its something nice we have here ; P
Its also more sterile than garden soil & so it is good for seedstarting & stuff where i mix it with vermicompost or sand etc.
here in bombay, last i bought it was Rs 20 per kg (dried block or wet) – the dried cocopeat were 5 kg blocks
So i use it in various combinations, also depending on the plant am using. usually with redsoil sand, manure etc. Manure also improves the structure of the soil & i've found these things very helpful since just using red, or some clayish soil, will strangle or damage many plants.. (wet or dry)
