Good Ideas Coco Fiber Compost Material (4 Pack) For Composting Toilets

Good Ideas coco fiber compost material is 100% natural coco fiber. This natural material acts as a natural sponge, improves aeration, enhances decomposition, and absorbs water to help reduce odor.

This is a great eco-friendly alternative to peat moss.

PREPARING YOUR COCO FIBER

Place one Coco Fiber brick into a 3 gallon or larger container. 5 Gallon buckets work great.
Add 1 gallon of warm water.
Wait 20-30 minutes for maximum expansion. Mix thoroughly.

Makes 1/4-1/3 cubic feet (2-2.5 Gallons or 8-9 liters). For best composting results, allow coco fiber to sit out in sun to evaporate excess moisture.

COMPOSTING TOILET USE

Recommended for use with the Nature's Head Composting Toilet.

Break off enough Coconut Fiber (about a 1 gallon buckets worth) and place it in your bucket.
Hydrate the Coco Fiber (typically comes dehydrated in a solid mass) with water until no dry clumps are visible and it has the look and feel of fresh garden soil (damp and crumbly, not wet). I use approx 1.5 – 2 liters of water.
Pour the hydrated coco until it levels out just under or at the agitator.
Put the toilet back together and its ready for use.
It is recommended that you allow up to 6 hours between readying your toilet for use and then actually going #2 in it. This is to let the Toilet contents, the coco fiber, to get to the proper temperature needed for composting.

GARDEN COMPOSTING

Mix green and brown materials 1:2. Coco fiber is a brown, carbon rich, material. In situations where coco fiber will act solely as your brown portion, use a 1:1 ratio. If you mix coco fiber with other brown materials, you will need to adjust your proportions accordingly, being careful not to add too much. If you have excess brown material, try adding water and/or more green ingredients to balance the batch.
