Review: Fibra di cocco ottima come base per un palo su cui far radicare le mie piante. Costo irrisorio rispetto alla concorrenza
Review: Me encantó y apenas use una pequeña parte. Mi hamnster lo adoro, hay veces que se queda dormido ahí y como son chips de coco pasa su tiempo destrozandolo así que funciona bien como enriquecimiento a su habitad. También tiene pequeñas fibras de coco pero son cortas y suaves por lo que no hay riesgo de que se atoren en sus patas.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: I'm seeing mixed answers. Does this expand into chips or soil (like Eco-Earth)?**
A: This one expands into chips just as shown on the picture/packaging illustration. If you are looking for a soil-like substrate go for Exo Terra Plantation Soil.

**Q: Can this be used to repot a napenthes pitcher plant?**
A: Not sure about napenthes pitcher plant, but I used it to repot my orchids (along with bark, and some other media). The coconut husk helps keep the moisture, but at the same time drains well.

**Q: i soaked the coco husk.  do i let it dry first? it seemed i had too much water, not sure how moist to leave it.**
A: that depends on the humidity needs of your animal. In my climate, the child months are dry so I left it wet and mist it periodically. I also have arboreal animals that won't be sitting in wet substrate too. I'd squeeze it out in a towel (the color bleeds) or let it set out over night in a thin layer (cookie sheet?)  It's easier to mist it wetter than dry it out once it's in the enclosure.

**Q: Is this ground and smashed into a block or is it more chunked?  Anyone with a picture of the product instead of the wrapper?**
A: It is not really soil, it's more chunked/pieces.
