The main benefit of loose coir is it is ready to go, no heavy bricks, no buckets which is ideal if you only need to add smaller amounts & it is instant just add water and mix, can be used then straight away

Now 200 grams will make approx 1 kilo of usable coir, this is based on adding two pints of water as you will see in the photo

It comes supplied in a clip seal bag just add your water and can be used within minutes, the rest can be kept in the grip seal bag, a brilliant idea when you need a small amount 

But I like a fair amount of moisture in the mix if you prefer less just add less water start with a pint to 200 grams and see how you go

This organic sieved coir offered for sale are from a sustainable source,and has to pass quality control test to ensure freedom of salt, that can be present with some coir products on the market.
