Review: Works great to lighten soil and increase water retention. - I grow almost all of our veggies and herbs indoors year around in my basement garden. I use a high quality potting soil (FoxFarm Ocean Forest), and use coco coir to lighten the soil and help with water retention. I have bought a couple of different brands of coco coir in the 10 lb. blocks which is the most economical way to buy it if you use a lot. This one is an 11 lb. block, so provides a bit more. My husband cuts the block into 4 pieces so I can hydrate one at a time in a 5 gallon container. I put this block in the container and add water to cover a little more than 1/2 of the block. Once spread out, this fills the 5 gallon container. I mix this into my 20 lb. bags of potting soil as needed. In the different brands I have tried, I have found them all to be similar except that this one is 11 pounds rather than 10 lbs. for the others. Coco coir is a great replacement for peat moss as an additive to soil. It lightens the soil and helps to retain moisture in the soil so it doesn't completely dry out so easily. This is especially helpful for plants in larger pots. When large pots of soil dry and you water, the water often drains through the soil without actually moisten it. You may think you sufficiently watered the plant, but the soil is actually still dry. Adding coco coir to the soil helps to catch the water so it can be absorbed by the soil. Coco coir can be used as a seed starter or for cloning plants, but it must be kept in mind that it has no nutrients for plant growth. New plants or clones should be transplanted into soil as they grow, and nutrients should be added. One of the pictures is my 5 gallon bin with 1/4 of this block hydrated. The block next to it is 1/4th of this 11 lb. block. Hopefully, this gives you an idea of how much this coco coir expands when hydrated. The other picture show how fluffy this coco coir is when hydrated. I hope this review was helpful for you. Review: Seems to be very nice. - I like the quality and price. I use it quite a bit to augment my soil. ## Features - WHY USE MAGJO NATURALS COCO PEAT - We source our Coco Peat from OMRI registered manufacturers so that our customers can be rest assured it is suitable for organic gardening of all kinds. - WASHED TO REMOVE SALT - Salt can have a harmful impact on your garden if the Coco Peat used isn't washed.

Is this stuff much differant?** A: We order online - I am in a remote location, 3 hours away from a hardware store that carries peat moss. This was the number one reason that I researched alternatives to begin with, but I encountered the sustainability issues with peat moss usage and it made a lot of sense to me to use coconut coir, which is making use of something that would have been discarded for its fruit anyhow. **Q: Is this coir stringy or is it pretty chopped up?** A: GREAT STUFFWith correct amount of water it will fluff like sheep's wool, too much and you turn it to paste. However it will fluff as it dries. I mix 5 gal water with this in a 5.2 cube wheelbarrow and add 2 cubes of perlite. You can put a gal of water in a wheelbarrow lay the cube in and the coir will expand only so far. you can then scrape the damp stuff off and store the remainder of the coir block. **Q: Is this just rinsed or specifically ph buffered? To approximately what ph? Also, any cal mag buffering?** A: Not sure but don't think so. **Q: Do I need to do anything to this before use other than add water? I.e buffering. What is buffering?** A: I know that to expand the coco fiber you need to add water Buffering will change the acidity or alkalinity of the coco fiber - learning the Ph of the fiber will direct you to the proper buffering agent. I've never considered this as important. I add the fiber to my soil as an amendment to make it more friable. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works great to lighten soil and increase water retention. *by J***. on March 30, 2024* I grow almost all of our veggies and herbs indoors year around in my basement garden.

I use it quite a bit to augment my soil. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Net Weight 11lbs.+ *by M***C on April 26, 2023* I ordered 4 of these 11-lb. bricks and got a partial shipment of 2 today. I see there have been complaints about some of these being short on weight, so I weighed them and they were both over 11 lbs (one was almost 12 lbs.) To me, some of these complaints have been a little silly, with shortages of only a few ounces, and seem to reflect a lack of understand of the product. Final weight can be greatly affected by drying time (5-15% moisture content), so unless there is a gross underweight, I would not complain. I have not used this brand before, so will see if there are any issues. If there are, I will update my review. Update: Today, I received the second half of the order and weighed both packages, both of which were more than 11 lbs (one was about 12 lbs). So no issue on the weight. I also hydrated one of the 11 lb. bricks today. I used a rock hammer to break it into smaller pieces (easy to day). It readily hydrated in a 20 gallon plastic garbage can up to about the 17 gallon mark. Using my TDS meter, there was only a very small increase in the mineral/salt content, going from our water source of 40 ppm (which is very low) to 200 ppm (which is also very low), so I do not have concerns there is a high level of salts in the coir. Ph went down a bit to slightly acidic, which is not an issue. So, overall, I would say this looks like it will be a good product at a good price. ## Frequently Bought Together - MagJo Naturals 100% Pure Coco Coir (Coco Peat) 11 Pound Block (5kg, OMRI Listed for Organic Gardening, Coconut Coir - Low EC and pH Balance - High Expansion Coco Fiber for Herbs, Flowers, Planting - Brut Organic Worm Castings – 5 LB – Natural Nutrients, Fertility Builder, Plant Food for Potting Soil, Garden Soil, Indoor and Outdoor Use - 10QT Horticultural Perlite Bulk, Organic Perlite for Plants, Course Perlite for Gardening, for Plants Indoor, for Houseplants, to Promotes Soil Root Growth, and Water Drainage and Plant Growth(3-6mm) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.it/products/31423575-naturals-100-pure-coco-coir-coco-peat-11-pound-block](https://www.desertcart.it/products/31423575-naturals-100-pure-coco-coir-coco-peat-11-pound-block) --- *Product available on Desertcart Italy* *Store origin: IT* *Last updated: 2026-05-09*
