Coco Coir 650gm Bricks (5-Pack) - Organic Coco Coir for Plants & Gardening - OMRI-Listed Cocopeat for Garden Soil, Seed Starter Soil, & Mulch - Organic Coconut Bricks - Coconut Fiber Potting Mix

I’ve been using these blocks for my soil for years now. It’s the base for nearly all of my 80 plants, along with perlite and, depending on the plant, some other soil amendments. Good drainage, not dusty, solid amount when you rehydrate (I think I do around 4 L per block), cheap compared to store bought potting solid and you get a ton of quantity once hydrated. I just keep it in a large vittle fault premixed once hydrate. Yes, it does smell a bit when hydrating, but that dissipates.

Easy to use. Plants seem to love it. Great for early spring planting.

Great product. I purchased galvanized raised beds. To fill them I put down cardboard first, then bark, then the coco coir. Mixed in some compost. I had great results growing tomatoes, beans, radishes, lettuce, squash, peas and carrots. I will definitely buy again.

I’ve purchased various amounts of this coco coir 11 times now. That’s how much I love it, but most importantly, all of my indoor plants do too. The difference from barely surviving before this coco to thriving and healthier plants is beyond words. I tried some other coco coir brands and the difference is very notable. Plants definitely showed signs of it. Based upon my experience over a couple of years now, I’d say this is plant magic in a little square! Phenomenal! I’ve only ONE time (recently) experienced the 2 boxes of coco coir I ordered were simply unusable- one box looked like black heavy clay after I added water and the 2nd box, after I added water, remained hard as a rock. I reached out to Amazon and explained I KNOW this company’s products are exceptional and something odd must have occurred, as we know and understand every now and then with ANY product, there can be flaws, damage, etc. Amazon had 2 replacement boxes of coco coir at my door within 8 hours! Truly love the coco coir, worth every single penny and am a lifetime customer now!

This is a great product, that is simple to use and there is absolutely no odor, unless your water is stinky. The value is such that it keeps me coming back year after year . I use this product with a course vermiculite. I grow indoor annuals under lights. The Coco coir is perfect, light and holds moisture extremely well. I have started to mix in diatomaceous earth powder in the top 2 inches of my soil tops. This is an inert amendment designed to provide a physical defense against the larvae that hatched from the eggs that are in the dried Coco coir. Yes all the bricks are laden with eggs from fungus gnats. This is my only organic material. I introduced nothing else. Every time fungus gnats, hence The addition of the diatomaceous earth. I’m happy now no bugs, diatomaceous earth is just nothing more than vermiculite powder that is very sharp (on a microscopic size) and will cut the skin of the larvae killing them before they become adults that can fly in your garden and then your house, Laying more eggs, watch out. Diatomaceous earth is a safe (just don’t breathe the dust)good product also cheap. Sprinkle a good amount to make your soil white when you mix it and that it will have a white milky runoff when watered this seems to be enough to stop this nasty pest. Sorry but it’s true Plantonix, but it’s OK I wouldn’t want any insecticides in the Coco-coir, maybe just a warning. Most people hate bugs, the larvae nibble on the roots, they are a pest unwanted it in the indoor garden. Have a bottle of Neem oil spray on hand for your aerial defense, this pest can be a worthy adversary, you probably could microwave the Coco core when it’s wet before you use it or possibly bake it to kill off the eggs

Great quality

Great price and it really does spread out a lot when you wet it. I used half a brick and I got a whole sand box for my rats, and 4 new filled pots for my plants. I honestly didnt think there would be so much condensed into these bricks and now I have 5 1/2 brick to use for anything. It wasnt dusty at all when wetting it or when it dried, which is why its such a good material for rats to play in! It does seem like it drains water pretty well. After a day the pots soil doesn't seem wet anymore and that's something my plants have needed, as ive been dealing with soil mites from overdose soil. Highly recommend using these and mixing with potting soil to help keep those mites away. They aren't harmful to your plants at all (unless you have spider mites) and they can help with breaking down organic matter, but all the same I do not want them in my house so using these bricks have been super helpful!

Fantastic quality and great price point. Don’t waste your money (or plants) on any other brand.
