How to use

Place the brick in a large container and add water slowly, letting it expand fully to about 4.5 cubic feet of fluffy coir. Use it on its own or blend with soil, with a typical mix of about 30% coco peat to 70% soil. The near-neutral pH suits most plants, and the coir holds moisture well to reduce watering.
