Coconut coir use?

[floridakat85]

Ok this might seem like a ridiculous question, but how exactly do I use coconut coir? I just got the bricks in the mail, and I know I'm suppose to soak them or moisten them somehow to turn them from brick into substrate, but how do I do that? And how much exactly will one brick of this stuff produce?

Add 4 Liters of warm water to a bucket. Add 1 brick and let soak for 20 mins. Stir after and ring out the water. One good squeeze to a handful should do it. There should be enough moister to make the handful hold its shape after you open your hand. Add water weekly to get the same result.
