    Yesterday night I thought if I cut a notch in one with a serrated knife & gave it a good muay thai knee it would do the job. Horrible idea, hurt like hell and made a huge mess. Just use a circular saw, don't try and go team impact on the coconut brick.

    Huh, missed this thread when it was posted. I Use a Compound Mitre Saw. It works really well for getting the amount you want off the brick while keeping your fingers safe.

    Hum... you guys already got the attention of FBI and ATF computers on this thread ! I just mix the blocks of Plantation Soil according to instructions and then store excess in a large plastic zip bag. Initially leave it open for a few days, so humidity evaporates to prevent molds and then zip shut until needed !
    Remember to take care of the enclosure and it will take care of your frog !​
