What is peat moss

Sphagnum peat moss is a natural, ecological soil conditioner, that regulates air and moisture around plant roots in order to improve growing conditions. Peat moss usually is compared to a sponge, because of its unique cellular structure that consists of large cavities that can easily absorb water and air.

Benefits of peat moss

·  Saving water– Peat moss can retain to 20 times its weight of water

·  Improving clay soil– Peat moss loosens and ventilates this type of soil

·  Binding sandy soil– Peat moss helps to create structure for sandy soil and preserve moisture and nutrients

·  Protecting soil- Peat moss protects soil from hardening and adds ogranic material to it

·  Improving compost quality– Peat moss speeds the composting process, controls water and air in the compost and reduces odors

·  Reducing leaching– Peat moss releases nutrients slowly over time, therefore reducing amounts of fertilizer use
