MagJo Coco Coir Block 11 lb (5 kg) — OMRI-Listed Washed Coco Peat, Low-EC pH-Balanced High-Expansion

This compressed 11-pound (5 kg) block of coconut coir comes from OMRI-registered sources and is processed to remove excess salts, giving gardeners a reliable, renewable substrate for seedlings, container plants, herbs, flowers, and soil mixes. Because it expands into a loose, fibrous medium, it offers better oxygenation than dense soils while absorbing and holding water like a sponge—helpful for conserving irrigation and promoting steady root access to moisture.

How will MagJo coco coir help my plants establish stronger roots?

When hydrated, the block fluffs into a light, airy matrix that encourages root branching and reduces compaction. Improved air pockets around roots support healthier root tips and quicker establishment for transplants and seedlings.

• Creates oxygen-rich pockets to reduce root suffocation
• Fibrous texture encourages lateral root growth
• Stable structure that resists compaction over time

Can I use this coco peat for organic gardening and sensitive plants?

Yes—MagJo Naturals sources its coco peat from OMRI-listed suppliers, making it suitable for certified organic systems where organic-approved inputs are required. The product is washed to lower salt content and balanced for pH, which minimizes stress for salt-sensitive herbs and ornamentals.

• OMRI-listed sourcing for organic compatibility
• Washed to reduce residual salts and soluble salts (EC)
• Neutral pH that blends well with fertilizers and amendments

How do I prepare and use the 11 lb coco coir block?

Hydrating the block is straightforward: place it in a container, add water, and allow it to expand. Once fully rehydrated and fluffed, it can be used alone as a soilless medium, mixed with potting soil, or combined with perlite and compost to create a custom blend for containers and raised beds.

• Add warm water and let the block absorb for 10–30 minutes
• Break apart and fluff to reach desired consistency
• Mix ratios: straight coco for hydroponics, or 30–50% coco in potting mixes

What practical benefits will I notice in my garden or containers?

Expect more consistent moisture retention without sogginess, reduced watering frequency, and a lighter root zone that supports rapid growth. Because coco peat is a coconut by-product, it’s a sustainable choice compared with non-renewable substrates.

• Improves water efficiency—holds moisture while draining excess
• Helps maintain even moisture for seed starting and cuttings
• Renewable, coconut-based material with broad gardening uses
