Review on Organic Coco Bliss - Low EC And PH Coconut Coir Pith For Healthy Plants And Gardens - OMRI Listed Potting Soil Substrate With 100% Natural Coconut Fibers (10 Blocks, 650 Grams) by Seth Torres

This is a great product, that is simple to use and there is absolutely no odor, unless your water is stinky. The value is such that it keeps me coming back year after year . I use this product with a course vermiculite. I grow indoor annuals under lights. The Coco coir is perfect, light and holds moisture extremely well. I have started to mix in diatomaceous earth powder in the top 2 inches of my soil tops. This is an inert amendment designed to provide a physical defense against the larvae that hatched from the eggs that are in the dried Coco coir. Yes all the bricks are laden with eggs from fungus gnats. This is my only organic material. I introduced nothing else. Every time fungus gnats, hence The addition of the diatomaceous earth. I’m happy now no bugs, diatomaceous earth is just nothing more than vermiculite powder that is very sharp (on a microscopic size) and will cut the skin of the larvae killing them before they become adults that can fly in your garden and then your house, Laying more eggs, watch out. Diatomaceous earth is a safe (just don’t breathe the dust)good product also cheap. Sprinkle a good amount to make your soil white when you mix it and that it will have a white milky runoff when watered this seems to be enough to stop this nasty pest. Sorry but it’s true Plantonix, but it’s OK I wouldn’t want any insecticides in the Coco-coir, maybe just a warning. Most people hate bugs, the larvae nibble on the roots, they are a pest unwanted it in the indoor garden. Have a bottle of Neem oil spray on hand for your aerial defense, this pest can be a worthy adversary, you probably could microwave the Coco core when it’s wet before you use it or possibly bake it to kill off the eggs
