This extra large coconut coir brick is a convenient, high-value growing medium for all kinds of planting and gardening projects. Made from coco fiber, a completely natural byproduct of the huge coconut growing industry from Sri Lanka, this compressed coco brick expands quickly with water to create a loose, moisture-retentive medium that supports healthy root growth and strong early development for a wide range of plants.
Ideal for containers, hanging baskets, raised beds, seed starting, and cuttings, these coco coir bricks help improve drainage while still holding the moisture roots need. Use this coconut coir brick on its own for certain applications or blend it with compost, potting mix, or other amendments to create a lighter, more workable medium for planting. It is especially useful when you want a clean, easy-to-store option for container gardening and soil mixing.
Because coir is porous, it promotes good air circulation around roots while helping reduce compaction. This makes it an excellent choice for gardeners looking for a dependable coconut brick soil ingredient for seedling mixes, container arrangements, and general garden use. It is weed free, 100% natural, and supports healthy growing conditions for all kinds of plants.
This 11 lb. compressed block expands approximately 5 to 1 and makes about 20 gallons. Whether you are refreshing containers, filling raised beds, rooting cuttings, or preparing soil for new plants, this extra large coco coir brick is an easy, practical addition to your gardening supplies.

Love this!
We have heavy clay plus some sandy soil & after years of trying to amend with peat moss, coco fiber is the clear ticket. I use it for mulch in the summer, than work it into soil in the fall. Highly recommend!

Great product

Good stuff!
Coir is a great basis for making your own potting soil. I mix this with chopped leaves, perlite, very little peat, an organic planting soil, some humus, and sometimes water gel/slow release fert. Once you hydrate it, you can keep it in a container to use as needed. I keep buying it every year.

Large Coir Block
Pleasantly surprised

This is it!
I have found my life-long planting medium. Fine enough for seed starting and light enough for hanging and large planters. Stored extra 1 on top shelf in mud room! The directions don't say but if you use the whole block you need 10 gallons of water. Make sure the container is water-tight- I found out my wagon liner isn't.
