Remove the outer wrapper and all contents from inside the Petit Coco Planter. You will find two peat pucks and a two packets of herb seeds inside.

Place the peat pucks inside the planter and add warm water halfway up the planter bowl. Let it sit five minutes to soften the dried peat. Take a fork and break up the peat pucks. Let it sit another five minutes to soften further, stir the peat soil, and add your seeds according to package directions. You can grow a single herb or a mixture of two herbs side by side.

What makes the Petit Coco grow?

The magic of the Petit Coco is the magic of mother nature. There is nothing “alive” or “automatic” about the Petit Coco. The Petit Coco is just a clever planter for starting herb seeds. It simply contains seeds and a dried potting mixture.

How long does it take to grow?

In general, seeds will germinate and sprout within 3-4 weeks. Bear in mind that herb seeds have different germination times. Keep your Petit Coco moist and warm during that time and keep the planter in sunlight.

What do I do if my Petit Coco is not growing?

Just like in nature many factors play into seeds successfully germinating. At first, the two most important factors are warmth and water. It is very important that your Petit Coco is placed in an environment with a temperature of 60 degrees or warmer (actually warmer is better, ideally 70 to 80 degrees is OK). Warmth triggers the seeds to start to germinate as if it is spring. If your Petit Coco dries out, then the delicate germination process may be disrupted.

How much Sunlight does my Petit Coco need?

Once the seedling appears above the soil’s surface, your Petit Coco should receive two to four hours of good sunlight each day. Before the seedling appears, it is not necessary to have full sunlight.

How much water does my Petit Coco need?

The thirsty Petit Coco drinks a lot. Water it every day if the peat soil is dry to the touch. Do not drown the Petit Coco, however.

How long can my Petit Coco last?

Your Petit Coco will grow for 2 to 4 months (depending on conditions), after that it is recommended that your herbs be transplanted to the ground or a larger pot. You can reuse the pot for growing or keep it around the kitchen as a clever votive or sundries holder.

Is the Petit Coco guaranteed?
