Has anyone seen this stuff? Its pretty awesome. Theres 4 different grades, all of them MUCH better then standard peat. I was able to pick up a bale from a friend, but it seems to be kind of hard to come by. If you're lucky, you may be able to get a hydroponics or garden shop to special order it for you, but its apparently not available normally to the public...
I picked up a bale of the "blue grade", which is the most "coarse".. Meaning its the fluffiest and least processed. It basically feels like milled pure sphagnum, pretty awesome. Anyway, I have a feeling alot of plants would really enjoy this stuff over standard peat. South American dews, Helis, plants that like a more open media and like growing in LFS. You can also apparently let plants go much longer before repotting, due to the fact that its not nearly as broken down as standard peat.
