Gold Label 70/30 Coco Perlite Mix – The Premium Growing Media for Maximum Control

If you’re looking for a growing media that gives you complete control over your plant’s nutritional uptake, drainage, and oxygen availability, Gold Label 70/30 Coco Perlite Mix is one of the best-performing substrates you can choose. Built on Gold Label’s renowned high-quality coco base, this blend takes the natural advantages of coco coir and elevates them with a carefully tuned water-to-air ratio that helps growers achieve consistently stronger, healthier plants.

Gold Label’s 70/30 mix is made from 70% premium coco substrate and 30% horticultural-grade perlite. This ratio has become a gold standard for growers who want to maximize root development while maintaining excellent moisture retention. Unlike soil, which can become compacted or waterlogged, the coco-perlite combination promotes an ideal balance between water-holding capacity and drainage. That balance ensures your root zone stays oxygen-rich—one of the most important factors for vigorous nutrient uptake and rapid vegetative growth.

Enhanced Root Development & Reduced Risk of Overwatering

One of the standout benefits of Gold Label 70/30 is its low risk of overwatering. Because perlite increases aeration and prevents excess moisture buildup, your plants receive constant access to oxygen, even shortly after irrigation. For growers who hand-water, this is a major advantage: the medium drains quickly, allowing for more frequent feeding cycles without drowning roots or causing nutrient lockout.

Coco coir itself naturally promotes fast root expansion thanks to its airy, fibrous structure. When combined with perlite, the environment becomes even more root-friendly. A healthier root system leads directly to stronger stems, improved nutrient uptake efficiency, and better overall plant resilience.

Optimized for Hand Watering and Precision Feeding

Gold Label 70/30 is especially popular among growers who prefer hand watering because it responds predictably to frequent nutrient applications. Coco is known for its ability to hold onto nutrients without becoming overly saturated, and this mix supports consistent EC levels, stable pH buffering, and controlled nutrient delivery.

Whether you’re using organic nutrients, mineral-based formulas, or a hybrid approach, the 70/30 substrate gives you full control over how and when your plants receive essential minerals. This makes it a favorite for growers aiming for clean, potent, high-quality harvests with minimal risk of nutrient buildup.

Premium, RHP-Certified Coco for Superior Quality

Gold Label sources and processes its coco coir under strict quality standards. Their RHP-certified production ensures the coco is thoroughly washed, buffered, and clean of contaminants. This means growers can use the substrate straight out of the bag without worrying about excess salts or unstable pH parameters.

The perlite included in the mix is horticultural grade and evenly distributed, preventing clumping and creating consistent airflow throughout the container. This uniformity leads to predictable performance across all stages of plant growth.

Versatile for All Growing Styles

Although optimized for hand watering, Gold Label 70/30 also performs exceptionally well in a variety of growing systems, including:

• Drip irrigation systems

• Hybrid hydroponic setups

• Run-to-waste environments

• Indoor and greenhouse cultivation

Because it retains moisture well yet drains rapidly, the substrate works for both fast-growing annuals and more delicate plants that require balanced hydration.
