You can also re dehydrate the coir and it will be loose for your next grow, but it does take a few hours. I've also just needed it to re case a couple tubs and stuck one end in some water to take what I needed and the heat from by the window dried it back out in a day.\r\n\r\nEach brick is about 16qts worth of coir.","subreddit_name":"unclebens","author":"sonoturmom"},{"body":"Most gardening centers will carry coconut coir bricks at the very least online.
