Benefits of peat moss
- Peat moss can retain to 20 times its weight of water
- Peat moss loosens up and ventilates this type of soil
- Peat moss helps to create structure for sandy soil and preserve moisture and necessary nutrients
- Peat moss protects soil from hardening and adds many organic materials to soil
- Peat moss speeds up the composting processes, controls water and air in the compost, and reduces odors
- Peat mossreleases nutrientsslowly and gradually over time, therefore, reducing the amounts of chemical fertilizer use
The product is 100% natural, slightly decomposed milled peat moss of Latvia origin, with high buffering ability,
water and air porosity, it is pest, disease and weed-free. In order to guarantee maximum outcome and density, please water the peat before use during the opening of the bag, this enhances the process of decompression.
