Coco Coir for Plants 2-Pack – 2.4 Gallons Compressed Coconut Coir Bricks, 1.5 lb. Low EC, pH Balanced Coco Peat for Indoor & Outdoor Gardening, Potting Soil, Indoor Plant Soil

I wish I had purchased more.

great product and great price. i have tried others and this is best i have found.

I'm not a gardener but the wife is and she loves this stuff. I holds moisture like no other. She definitely likes the way she can rehydrate and place it where its need in the garden.

I only needed a small amount to plant one Sago palm so a brick was just right. I followed the instructions on the package and it was easy, easy. So thankful I was able to order a small amount and perfect for my pot.

Good mulch, but too expensive as it covers only a small area.

Coco coir is an excellent component to replace peat in a high-quality growing medium. I combined this product after re-constituting with perlite and worm castings to re-pot seven medium (9" pot) to large (18" pot) plants today, and still have a couple bricks left for future projects. The dense, strong brick is essentially indestructible in shipping and all (two 3-pk in a box) arrived with no damage. Reconstituting in water takes only a few minutes, and the product is then ready to integrate into a soil mix at proportions you deem appropriate for your plants.I wasn't exactly certain how much the product would expand, and it achieves at least a 2:1 expansion ratio and once reconstituted, performs like high-quality peat with no sharps. Reconstituting bricks set flat in an open-top tote tub worked best, so two bricks wouldn't wedge and distort a 1-gal bucket. I also like that this is essentially a waste product finding an excellent use, rather than our boreal forests and heathlands being torn up for peat harvests.Mixing with this product is extremely easy, and the soil mix I produced was simple to handle, fluffy and nutrient-dense with the desired permeability characteristics. This product's performance as the fiber component is excellent. I'm quite pleased with this product and will happily order more when I run out.

I bought Envelor Coco Coir Chips Orchid Potting Mix for my greenhouse plants (about 200). I use it alone and/or mixed with sphagnum, pearlite chunks, and/or Hydroton Expanded Clay Pebbles. This media allows free air access to roots, is lightweight (a bonus if you ship), and very resistant to decomposition. Some things I particularly like about this product:- Economy vs. other media. The 10lb block expanded to fill 3/4 of a tall kitchen garbage bag.- It is easy to wet. Some orchid media is so dry that it is hard to get to begin retaining moisture.- The chips are sized well. I use it for Cattleya, Dendrobium, Phalaenopis and many exotics.- Mix in some sphagnum to improve water retention for phalaenopsis and other that like more moisture.- Mix in some expanded clay pellets to speed drying for orchids that C. walkeriana and others that hate wet feet.Negatives- I was unable to break up the 10lb block. Before you start have a plan to dry out the expanded result.

Works great in my chunky houseplant mix.
