To give all of you an idea of the volume a 1/3 ft^3 brick will expand to.

coco coir is the stuff anf not the brand name isnt it. Like generically referring the verm as verm. I looked it up and found a bunch of brand names sporting coco coir.
Is one as good as the other?

Yeah that stuff goes a long ways.

I was smart and only used part of a brick.

Like 1/8th of a brick for 3 casings.

Hey smart guy!....what are ya tryin' to say?
:smile:

I wanted to see the whole brick hydrated. Now that it's sterilised I can eat it whenever. Maybe I'll spice it up with some verm.

sloted (aka flathead) screw driver and a hammer, works best (go with the compression grain, not against it)
