If it's the same guy... he has mixed grades, or you can buy them individually & mix your own... even had a fine pith available.

Kinda liked the idea of supporting these folks over the bigger companies, but dropped the coir before I gave it a run. The mix you have looks to be very airy... really only the chunks are going to hold any solution for you... might need to pith it up a bit.


Let us know if any mites start hatching after the first 3-4 weeks... by week 5-6 you should be able to see em crawling around... if they are there too. Peace

What!!, this stuff comes preloaded with mites?
no joke? I never noticed that with Empire's coco.

I tried his pith, its good too..But this mix reminds me of Empire's mix, which I freaking loved, but hated the seedlings of whatever grass from sri lanka popping up in my pots, and all the foreign material . I like to flood alot , 3-5 times a light cycle, so airy is good for me.


do you like that its not really compressed like Empire? seemed easier to rinse..
