How To Use Coco Coir Bricks

To use these convenient bricks, simply follow these steps: First, immerse the brick in a bucket of water and let it soak. As it absorbs water, the brick will expand and transform into a fluffy and nutrient-rich growing medium.

Once fully expanded, break apart the coir with your hands to create a loose and well-aerated substrate. Now, you're ready to transplant your seedlings or cuttings into the coco coir.

Remember to monitor moisture levels and adjust your watering and nutrient regimen as needed, as coco coir provides excellent drainage and aeration. Experience the benefits of coco coir's water retention, root support, and eco-friendly composition – all effortlessly achievable with our user-friendly coco coir bricks.

Directions for use

Lay briquette down flat somewhere that can hold water and allow space for expansion.
Slowly pour warm water over briquette allowing water to absorb without runoff. Let briquette sit for 30-40 minutes.
Break apart with hands until light and spongy.

Tips: The warmer the water, the faster and easier is the expansion.

Do not use hot water over 100 degrees Fahrenheit
