Coir usage

[Guest guest]

I've been following the thread on how to grow sunnies on coir, but I'm still a

bit confused. So basically, you just soak a coir brick in a bucket with as much

water as it requires (see direction on coir packaging). Crumble off enough for a

pie plate or whatnot and keep it wet during the growing.

But, what happens to the rest of the brick? Do you just leave it in that bucket

and keep crumbling off pieces as needed? I think I saw you have to keep the

bucket covered? Do you add more water, or once it's soaked, it's good and it can

just sit there?

Thanks!
