Legigo 4 Pack Premium Coco Coir Brick for Plants- 100% Organic Compressed Coconut Coir Bricks Starting Mix, Coco Coir Fiber Coconut Husk for Planting, Gardening, Potting Soil Substrate, Herbs

I'm an avid gardener, I've tried various soil amendments, and this product has quickly become one of my favorites.Pros:Filling raised beds is expensive, with these coco coir peat bricks you get a great value for a great price. It is a great cost effective solution, I mixed it in with moisture control gardening soil and worm castings. My garden is beyond thriving! I used the coco coir as a component in my potting mix from seed starting to transplanting and it worked wonders for my plants.Its compressed form makes storage and handling a breeze.Its easy to use, just need to soak in water for expansion. When soaking the brick, I normally place it in a bucket and fill it until the brick is fully submerged and give it some time.It provides excellent moisture retention, great for long hot summer days.Cons:The water retention can become a problem for overwatering or root rot. For those who already overwater the bricks when expanding them, its a good way to learn how much water is too much water. I noticed after purchasing, these coco coir bricks have no perlite. There are other brands available that have added perlite. Perlite works great for moisture control as well as preventing soil compression. I definitely will try those next and see if I like them better.When removing the plastic packaging, it releases dust. It is a great idea to unwrap the coco coir brick inside a bucket to reduce dust fallout.I do believe the uneven sizing stated on the other reviews, could be a quality control issue. I ordered two 8pks and all my bricks were of equal size.

I’m really impressed with these coco coir bricks! The 8-pack offers amazing value, and they go a long way. Each brick expands to a decent size when hydrated, providing plenty of material for my gardening needs. It’s perfect for my plants, and I love how easy it is to work with.The quality is great, and I’ve used them for several different types of plants without any issues. Whether you’re new to gardening or a seasoned pro, this is a fantastic and cost-effective option. Highly recommend!

Works well for what I was using it for. Hydrates to maybe quadruple its size. I hydrated mine with a low dose of the grow nutrients from Fox Farms. This helped jumpstart my clones once they were put in soil. I mixed in about 20% perlite with this to help retain moisture. Make sure you have some calMag handy since this medium tends to hold on to salt. More temperamental than premixed potting soils.

Breaks up easily and works well.

I love the idea of this stuff. We have only sand where we live so it’s great to have this stuff in bricks and just make it up as you need it. I planted a big strip of grass with this stuff and it grew in fast and so nice and thick

These coco bricks are a good Addison to my soil for pots and garden.

Breaks down fastest yet. Love the ease of it. I used it this time to stop the run off when it rains. Dries and then swells up with the rain. Saved my new garden from washing away

Not great. Does NOT expand easily and seems to be of inferior quality. A bit dusty and definitely not enough to really use by itself. Needs to be mixed with other things or it’s just expensive. Decent water retention.
