| Certified by the
Organic Materials Review Institute, these bricks and blocks now feature coir chunks and
chips for greater root penetration. Coconut fiber is rapidly becoming one of the
most popular growing mediums in the world. There are many advantages to using this growing
medium including, a measure of protection from root diseases and fungus infestation, as
well as high levels of natural rooting hormones. Coconut fiber comes dry and compressed
and must be "fluffed-up" and re-hydrated to a consistency of wet coffee grounds. New and improved expanding Coir-Bricks and Coir-Blocks are
great amendments for soil in gardens and containers as well as soilless media used for
hydroponics gardening. Coconut-based Coir-Bricks and Coir-Blocks are derived from an abundant, renewable resource that naturally retains air
and moisture. The Coir-Brick expands to approximately eight liters when soaked in
water while the larger Coir-Block expands to an impressive 65 liters.
The new Piece Coir creates an ideal environment for robust
root development. Made from a byproduct of the coconut industry, it is a renewable
alternative to peat which takes several hundred years to develop. Piece Coir can be
used as a soil additive and as a base in hydroponics soilless mixtures for high oxygen and
water retention as well as fast root penetration. 40-liter bag of loose-fiber Piece
Coir is ready-to-use and requires no soaking.
