gardening success mainly lies in your potting mix. Whether you grow conventionally in soil

or grow in containers, the soil or potting medium needs to provide the plant root systems

with: � Good aeration

� Good drainage � Enough moisture

� And the ability to absorb nutrients by roots.

So, Sphagnum Peat moss � whether you have heard about it or not, lets learn and gain

some important knowledge about this stuff and utilize its benefits in gardening.

So, For Home gardening Level, We will use Peat moss and Sphagnum peat moss synonymously.

The difference is simple. Peat moss is just dead Sphagnum moss and Sphagnum moss belongs

to a group of plants called Bryophytes. These plants produce only spores and no seeds or

flowers. � These are harvested and processed to use

as peat moss. The one you are seeing is unprocessed or partly processed form of peat moss. It

has an earthy smell. � If its fully dried and powdered, it looks

similar to coco-peat.

Benefits of Peat Moss in Gardening � It�s a Perfect Soil Conditioner: that

means it helps in loosening the compacted soil to improve aeration and increases the

water holding capacity and helps in nutrients and water binding which aids in absorption

of nutrients by the roots. � Peat moss also contains traces of vitamins,

polyphenols and humic acid. It has a slightly acidic pH. But the nutrients in it are only

in traces and not sufficient enough to call peat moss a fertilizer.

� The pH is slightly acidic which can increase nutrient absorption by roots and also very

useful for acid loving plants. � It loosens clay rich soils and compacted

soils, improving their porosity and makes your perfect well draining soil.

� Retains Moisture well in soil. It increases the Water holding capacity of soils.

� It is a sterile growing medium. Peat moss is weed and pathogen free. It has disease

suppressing qualities against certain root-rot pathogens, making it ideal as a component

in hydroponic gardening. � Used for propagating seeds and seedlings

and It is completely organic. � Its also useful in lawn dressing, In vegetable

gardens and raised beds or for seed starting. � Hanging baskets: Often the wire type hanging

baskets. It makes them light and also retains moisture.

� Specialized plants: Peat moss is the ideal medium for carnivorous plants.

� Its also used in air layering � the best plant propagation technique.

So, Now How To Use Peat Moss In Your Garden and How much to use

Peat moss is mostly not a stand alone growing medium except for some seed germinations and

cloning through stem cuttings. Peat moss to start with is a dry stuff, but once soaked

and allowed to absorb water it becomes a spongy. So make sure to pre-soak it for few minutes

and squeeze it before adding to your mix. Now we will look into some of the common practical

applications for peat moss and the question arising is: How much to mix in your potting

mix? Well it depends on the purpose you want to use it for. Mixing some peat moss with

your soil may not be helpful, because it get too compacted in heavy soil. Best is to make

a potting mix using various other media like cocopeat, vermicompost and so on. You can

really make a very light weight potting mix using peat moss, specially for teres gardening

and hanging baskets. Regarding the proportions for mixing it in

your soil, there is no fixed percentage. For your universal potting mix, you can mix this

in place of cocopeat or even mix with cocopeat! So using about 30 percent peat moss should

be fine for general potting mix. For seed starting mix and to insert your stem

cuttings for cloning and also for Air layering, you can use peat moss as stand alone medium

or mix with cocopeat, perlite and other stuff and again no fixed proportions. The general

concept is If you are not using garden soil the whole mix is generally sterile and gives

more success for seed germination and rooting cuttings.
