| I am attempting to grow strawberries in coconut coir vertical towers. Have heard coconut coir needs special nutrients for this to work. Anyone had success with 100% coconut coir? |

| I used coconut soil, which I bought in gardening shop - pure and as and addition for fertilizing. It was perfect. But I'm not sure that "coconut coir" and "coconut soil" are the same. |

| Suggest you check with the folk on the Hydroponics forum as this system is often used for soilless growing. (Coir and perlite.) |
