does 2 bricks of coir sound enought for for a 64qt tub?
    #11135977 - 09/27/09 07:45 AM (14 years, 5 months ago)

i also want to add coffee and verm. (maybe a qt each??) would this be enough for 3-4inch of substrate in that tub(64qt) or do you think ill just need one brick of coir..


also, would it be a good idea ti add some gypsum? maybe like 1.5/cup..or is that way too much


thanks:mushroom2:

How much does a brick weigh? The gypsum sounds good maybe only a cup though

when you talk about coffee do you mean spent or fresh dry?

I use 1 brick coir, 2 qts verm, 1 qt coffee, cup of gypsum in my 54 quart tubs for a depth of 4".

2 bricks might be a little much. I would go for a brick and a quarter to a brick and a half.

I've been to starbucks a few times and they are always out of grounds when I get there.

Damn hippy town.

Anyway, I bought a big ass tin of coffee from Food Lion and just throw about a quart into a big as pot of water and boil for about 10 minutes. Strain it, and mix it in with the coir and verm.

If you cannot get a hold of a free bag from starbucks I recommend doing it this way rather than sitting there making pot after pot of coffee.
