Great value, and easy to setup
Great value for the amount of substrate you get, and its easy to setup, just add water. Reccomended to add in a container first before adding the waterð

Been using for years!
Love this brand and most of what it has to offer. These affordable bricks really go a long ways. I’ve used these bricks for several of my reptiles. Holds moisture and easy cleaning.

Grew mold in a matter of days!!
It hasn’t even been a week since attempting to use this for my aroid potting mix. I used this for one plant only so far. I felt like the plant was acting weird so I dug around in the pot and discovered MOLD on some of the husk pieces. I bought two bricks but only used one. There was no mold in the brick at all so I’m not sure what happened. Also, my brick is mainly hard pieces of husk and lots of long fibers. Not very many chunks in mine which isn’t very good for what I’m using it for. My plant now had root rot after using this. I’m so sad.

Lo estoy usando para hacer más liviano el sustrato de mis plantas ya que es una solución bastante económica en comparación con otras más especÃficas. En combinación con fibra de coco, compost y perlita tengo una tierra que mis plantas agradecen.

Me encantó y apenas use una pequeña parte.Mi hamnster lo adoro, hay veces que se queda dormido ahà y como son chips de coco pasa su tiempo destrozandolo asà que funciona bien como enriquecimiento a su habitad.También tiene pequeñas fibras de coco pero son cortas y suaves por lo que no hay riesgo de que se atoren en sus patas.
