Coco Coir Brick for Plants-6 Pack Premium Coconut Bricks, 100% Organic Peat Moss, Fiber Coconut Husk for Planting, Gardening, Potting Soil Substrate

I grow a lot of plants from seeds and this stuff is amazing.

I’ve been using Coco Coir for two years now and I have grown to love it; I use it for cuttings and seeds. At first, I didn’t like the results. I didn’t realize that it has little to no nutrients and minerals. Once I learned that I started trying out different additives to the coco coir to give it a little fertilizer. I didn’t want to use harsh chemical fertilizers; I wanted to use something gentler. Here’s where the worm castings come in. By mixing the worm castings in it gave it just the right kick that seedlings and cuttings need. My success rate doubled, if not more. I also mix some perlite and vermiculite in to give it drainage and to loosen it up. For me, this process and mixture work best. I hydrate 3 bricks at a time. I stand them up vertically in a 5-gallon bucket. Add 2 quarts of water and let it sit overnight. The next day I flip the bricks (sometimes they come apart, so I try to make the top of them even) and add 3 quarts more water and let that sit overnight too. For me, that usually does the trick. I then break it up. I add 1.75 quarts of perlite, 1.75 quarts of vermiculite, and the same amount of worm castings. Once seedlings take hold, about 2 to 3 weeks after sprouting I’ll add water soluble fertilizer. Same for the cuttings. I don’t give them much to start out with and increase it over time as you would any normal plant. This is what works for me, you may find a different process that works just as well.

Awsome product good job on delivery

I think I will give an updated review after I use the product.

A little difficult to start, but once you get them soaked and cleaned it's a great product. Filled 2 8x2 (above ground) flower beds after mixing in a good potting soil. The bricks really makes a lot Why did you pick this product vs others?: Needed something good to help fill raised garden bed. Will post pics when I finish wth my garden. Too much rain right now.

terrible product, placed in warm water and it wouldn't absorb any of it. tried breaking it up to give more surface area and it felt like straw. I have been buying coco coir for years and never had a problem. Do not buy.

I only used half a brick to start and surprised with expansion rate after rehydration. I used about 6 pints of water to half a brick to fully saturate. The process took less than 15 minutes. Great value and easy to store until needed. Half a brick was enough to pot row Aloes in photo

Expansion while complete and easy, was about 1/2 what I was expecting. each block produced about ONE Gallon of finished product. I'm sure it will work fine as a medium when mixed with my soil , just not as expansive as expected per product description.
