Details:some time ago, growers switched to sphagnum peat, a fern that is broken down through a process of several years of ageing. Sphagnum peat is found in the soils of the forests in countries like canada, usa, ireland to name a few and exported to countries all over the world. The peat is inert, which means that it is well balanced because it has natural characteristics that help it retain nutrition and water. These characteristics of peat help growers maintain uniform fertilizer and watering schedules for their plants in every batch they grow.

This method has been used for the past 3 to 4 decades and now the growing concern is the depletion of the peat bogs and destruction of some unique flora and fauna. Recently, many countries have quantity restrictions on the exploitation of peat bogs. These countries plan to introduce a complete ban on peat trade in the next few years.

This has become a serious problem for growers who have been using peat as the only growing medium. The best or superior alternative they have discovered to sphagnum peat is coco peat which is a by product of the coconut fibre industry. Coco peat is both renewable and eco friendly.

Coco peat has recently been widely recognized as the superior growing medium in which tomatoes, roses, ornamental plants, other vegetables and lawn grass can be grown. The horticulture industry often calls this substrate coco-peat or coir-peat. It is know by many other alternative names.
