Vivosun 1.4 lb Compressed Coco Coir Brick
Bagged potting mix is heavy, bulky to store, and often compacts into a dense, waterlogged mass that starves roots of oxygen. Poorly rinsed coir brings its own problem: excess salts that build up in the root zone. The Vivosun 1.4 lb Compressed Coco Coir Brick solves both. Each 7.87" × 3.94" × 1.97" brick expands into 2.3 gallons of loose, airy growing medium with 1–2 gallons of water. The coir is rinsed multiple times with fresh water for balanced pH and low EC.
Made from natural coconut husk fiber, the Vivosun Coco Coir Brick has a porous structure that drains freely and provides aeration while still holding water and nutrients where roots can reach them. That balance supports strong root development in seed trays, containers, and garden beds. Use it on its own as a soil substitute, or blend it in to loosen heavy clay and improve drainage.
Preparation takes about 15 minutes. Soak the brick in a large container, stir to break it apart, then mix in organic fertilizer; Vivosun recommends buffering with a cal-mag solution before planting. Compressed bricks store in a fraction of the space of bagged media and are available in 1-, 3-, and 6-packs. They're suited to vegetables, herbs, flowers, microgreens, and even reptile bedding.
