Hello!

I recently bought the expandable coconut fiber substrate. As I went to wring out the water after soaking it for a while, I noticed white bubbles forming in the water, almost like soap? I didn't use ANY soap whatsoever, so I know it's coming from the substrate itself. is this normal? This is my first time dealing with expandable coconut fiber!!

Thanks in advance!

I've never noticed that, but I've also never put in so much water that I could wring it out.

I'm thinking that's likely my issue. I followed the directions and it was WAY too much water haha
