JoBeth I guess that would work. I made my own coir string by ripping up a portion of one of those liners so cutting it into fine strips would give you more moisture retention. The coir would certainly last longer than sphag.

Are you going to use this net pot hung or as a regular container sitting on a shelf? If sitting, the solid coir would certainly keep the roots inside and more manageable. Sorry I ask more questions than I answer :>)

Be sure to soak and rinse the coir a couple of times before using to eliminate any salts.

And last question, where did you get your gig?
