🌱 How to Use Coco Coir

1. Place the Brick in a Large Container

Use a clean bucket, tub, or tray that can hold at least 10 liters of material once expanded.


2. Add Water

Pour 3 to 4 liters of clean, lukewarm water evenly over the block.

Tip: Start with 3 liters and gradually add more as needed for ideal consistency.


3. Let It Soak

Allow the block to absorb water and expand for 15–30 minutes. No stirring needed—just let it do its work.


4. Loosen and Fluff

Once fully expanded, break apart the coir using your hands or a trowel to create a soft, even-textured growing medium.


5. Ready to Use

Your hydrated coco coir is now ready for use in pots, seed trays, raised beds, or hydroponic systems.
