How to prepare your Makkelijke Moestuingrond
Step by step
1. Put one cocopeat block in a bucket (or two in a tub)
Fill the bucket with water. You will see the block absorb the water and slowly expand.

Start loosening the cocopeat fibres in the bucket.
3. Empty the bucket into your raised bed
Repeat this with all the cocopeat blocks.
4. Pick out any dry pieces from your raised bed
Place them on top of the loose fibres.
5. Pour some more water over the dry pieces
6. Use your hands to loosen everything thoroughly
