Coir pots
 

Anybody used these? Are they better than peat pots? The same, worse?

I found what I considered a great deal on them. $1.39 for 6 4" pots. I bought some to try out, and am seriously considering going back to buy more, but wanted some opinions first.

Thanks!

I haven't heard of them, but i use coir fiber in my blueberry bed to lower the pH. They probably treat them somehow to make them more neutral i'd think.

I've looked at them, but they were always too expensive to be practical. I'll be interested in your opinion.

Coir holds water much better than peat. This is from what I've read, not observed personally.

I have used coir mixed in with seed starting mixtures. I did not think the plants with the coir did any better. Very expensive usually.

I use it all the time in seed starting mixtures. I buy the bricks to mix my own, so it's not expensive. I've never used the coir pots, though.
