Someone toss me field capacity measurements in quart jars to get coir field capacity for reference for a experiment

It's different for every brand of coir.

Most people weigh the brick and multiply it by 4.2. For me, that comes out way too dry

So 4.2x water as there is coir 😅

Chances are it will be dry. If you have an extra brick, make it at 4.2, then add 50ml at a time until you reach field capacity. Add that to how much water you originally put in and  divide by the weight of the brick to figure out the ratio for your brand.

I have to add at least liter if I do 4.2.

Grams of Dry Coir  X  4.2  =  ml/Grams of Water


again like Puff said. This will be dry, but it's a baseline you can start from. and then If its still not at Field Capacity, Add 50ml water. If its still not at Field Capacity, Add 50ml water. If its still not at Field Capacity, Add 50ml water. If its still not at Field Capacity, Add 50ml water. If its still not at Field Capacity, Add 50ml water. If its still not at Field Capacity, Add 50ml water.

if after adding 50ml of water in 6 different intervals like you explained its still not at field capacity? How should I proceed? 🤣
