Jurassic Natural Tropical Coco Soil Bedding: The Ultimate Substrate for Humidity-Loving Live Plants and Carnivorous Plants

Tropical Coco Soil is 100% natural coconut pith, making it both sustainable and harvested from a renewable resource. The grain is soft and pure with high absorbency properties, ideal for maintaining optimal humidity levels.

Perfect for Carnivorous Plants

Tropical Coco Soil is an excellent choice for Venus Fly Traps, Sundews, and other carnivorous plants. Its high absorbency and natural composition provide the ideal environment for these unique plants to thrive.

Enhancing Your Soil Mix

To create the best soil mix for your carnivorous plants, consider the following additions:

  • Perlite: Mix with Tropical Coco Soil to improve aeration and drainage, essential for preventing root rot.
  • Sphagnum Moss: Use our Shrimp Peat Sphagnum Moss to retain moisture while providing a slightly acidic environment, perfect for carnivorous plants.
  • Silica Sand: Add our Sugar White Silica Sand to ensure proper drainage and mimic the natural sandy conditions many carnivorous plants prefer.

Directions:

Spread evenly to a depth of approximately 2 inches (4-5cm) around the base of your terrarium. You can create mounds and gullies that suit your terrain designs. When planting, build up enough substrate to cover roots or hold plants firmly. Spot clean as required and replace or top up periodically.

Media Types

What is a Gel Cup?

A tissue culture vessel is a clear gel, transparent container (5 cm diameter x 7 cm height) that holds multiple young plants (typically 3 or more) grown under laboratory conditions.

These vessels provide a carefully controlled environment, keeping the plants healthy and contaminant-free until they're ready to transition to standard growing conditions.

Quick Hardening Steps:

  1. Open Lid Gradually: Slightly open the cup to slowly reduce humidity.
  2. Maintain Humidity: Gradually decrease humidity over 2–4 weeks.
  3. Indirect Light: Start with gentle, indirect lighting.
  4. Moist Soil: Keep media damp, never wet.
  5. Monitor Closely: Slowly increase airflow and light exposure.

What is a Transition Cup

Each transparent Transition Cup (5 cm diameter × 7 cm height) contains a juvenile carnivorous plant that has moved beyond sterile tissue culture and into a structured transition medium.

Inside, you’ll find a young carnivorous plant securely planted in a semi-solid blend designed to support root development while easing the shift from gel to soil.

This carefully balanced environment maintains optimal humidity and airflow, helping reduce transplant shock and supporting the plant during this critical transition stage.

Suitable for both novice growers and experienced collectors, Transition Cups provide a reliable, low-stress way to guide delicate carnivorous plants toward successful soil establishment.

Soil Cup

Each transparent carnivorous cup (5 cm diameter x 7 cm height) contains a juvenile carnivorous plant freshly transitioned from tissue culture.

Inside, you'll find a young carnivorous plant planted securely in special growing media soil that replicates their natural habitat.

This carefully balanced environment maintains optimal humidity, aiding the delicate plants during their crucial hardening-off stage.

Perfect for both novice growers and experienced collectors, these cups provide a simple and effective way to cultivate and enjoy captivating insect-eating plants.
