Producing 70-80 litres of peat-free growing medium from a 30cm L x 30cm W x 13cm H coir bale sounds like something only Derren Brown or Paul Daniels could manage - but this seemingly impossible horticultural magic trick is something you can perform in your own kitchen garden, vegetable patch or allotment, thanks to the Eco-Coir Bricks and Bale!
Just by adding water and stirring, you can convert these organic, peat-free, compact bricks of all-natural coconut fibre (coir) into a growing medium for soil conditioning, hanging baskets and container growing or as additional brown matter for home composts - even as a bedding material for worm composters.
They can also be used to lighten clay soils, improve water capacity in sandy soils or can play a major part in creating an ideal potting compost by mixing with other components, such as sand, garden compost, loam and manure. The Eco-Coir Bales measures 30cm L x 30cm W x 13cm H and will provide you with between 70 and 80 litres of peat-free multi-purpose compost - the size of a large garden centre-bought bag!
