There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
The only issue I have with it is it’s a rather large block and a bit of a commitment when you expand it to 15 gallons, but that is probably part of the reason it’s priced lower per volume than other products. To help avoid mold during storage I dry the expanded product in the oven on a low temperature (no hotter than 180 F). Higher temperatures release toxins into the soil like ammonium which are bad for plants so if you do this, keep the oven no hotter than 180 F. Then I combine it with 1 part vermiculite for 6 parts coco coir for an especially fluffy grow medium.
Update coco preformed very well peppers got huge much taller than in these pictures this coco is all I use now I did side by side comparisons with this coco and a pre mix with some soil coco perlite and some amendments this coco out preformed others in terms of overall growth seen from the plants
