Coconut Coir

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.
