Default Bark contaminated ?

I suppose they're all coir-based products.

On the coarse end is CHC, then CH Fiber, and then the "dust" (ground up
version) is what we commonly think of as "coir," sometimes sold as
"Coco-peat."

Jerry Rodder is growing his cattleyas in 100% coir.


Explain coir to me. Is it that stuff that looks like mud when you wet it?
Short (mm) pieces of coconut fiber?
(Boy, do I feel stupid asking a newbie question like this!) How would

that
work for Catts??? I must be thinking of something else.
