I buy something called "forest bedding" or something from a pet shop. I would guess you could find some coir if you look at some similar shops!
Never tried what you are linking, but i assume there's added nutrition (NPK) for growing plants in, from what i've read on here i don't think that would be beneficial to your grow.

I've been reading a little on that canna coco thing and there's no additional nutrition listed anywhere, but I'm not sure. Maybe get it from abroad?

Canna coco is recommended by a lot of ppl...mycotek shouts them out all the time on his ig...the bricks would prolly be more cost effective if you could get them

Amazing! That sound nice.
Unfortunately, I cannot get the bricks. Is there any problem with the big bag (I am likely not using everything up at once and it will be standing around open for quite a bit).

Nah, you might just need to rehydrate it a little if it dries out. Just use spray bottle and give it some water if that happens.

I would be surprised if you didn't find any in Sweden. In a neighboring country there is 650gr coir bricks available in a specialized store

I wouldn't use that kind of coir as it is very coarse and will not be very evenly colonized. You can use it, and I've grown on it once with a casing of finely ground coir, but the results are inferior to just fine coir. The fine coir is in bricks and is used as terrarium bedding, I am sure some of the pet stores where you live will have it.

Plantation soil is the right thing.

Yup, exactly what I use, and I'm located pretty near Sweden.

So you mean the exo-terra plantation soil is not good? Seems to be the thing that everyone is suggesting.

Anything that is just coir in a solid brick is good. I guess just coir in some other form is good too. You want only coir.
