Compressed Coco Coir Block
Just add water — and watch it get fluffy.
This is our favorite part. Drop a compressed block into a bucket, add warm water, and break it apart with your hands as it expands into a light, airy, incredibly satisfying growing medium. Make sure to wear a mask! One amended block (mixed with perlite) can fill 2–3 ten-gallon grow bags — or roughly 5 five-gallon equivalents. That’s a lot of growing power in one small brick.
We use coco coir in everything — garden beds, grow bags, flower containers, potato bags, veggie patches. It’s our go-to base for nearly every growing situation at SJR Growers Co, and now we’re making it available for you.
And because it matters to us: we are committed to sourcing ethically produced coco coir — supporting responsible labor practices and sustainable harvesting from coconut farming communities. We hold ourselves to that standard and are proud to pass it on to our customers.

🪣 How to Hydrate Your Block (Our Favorite Part)
- Place the block in a large bucket or tub — a 5-gallon bucket works perfectly
- Add 4–6 cups of warm water slowly and let the block begin to absorb
- Break it apart with your hands or a trowel as it loosens and expands — enjoy the process!
- Add more water as needed until fully fluffy and evenly moist
- Mix in perlite for drainage, worm castings for nutrition, or use as-is for a clean base
- One block amended with perlite fills 2–3 ten-gallon grow bags — or about 5 five-gallon equivalents
