I did have some Coir a couple years ago and I did soak it into a "soil"??
It seems very rough and coarse when done. Then again--maybe that is
what it is supposed to be?
I have a lot of compressed peat dics that were around years ago.
It was called "EZ Soil" and came in small packages/boxes with directions
to soak it in water for planting. There were about 3 or 4 fat discs in each box
each about the size of a jar lid.
This was from the "Franks Nursery and Crafts" days. I have a lot of these small boxes... need to test/soak/ and time one to see how long it takes to "dissolve"...I'll bet on about 2-3 days.....
GREAT Thread topic--Sally!!!! Keep it going....
I bet it won't take long before "Tapla" chimes in.....
