Ok, so hopefully some of ya'll will post some photos and reviews of *your* peat moss so we can all get an idea of what's out there. I don't have a lot of resources around here, it's kind of a rural setting. And, the stores around here have limited merchandise. Walmart & TSC are roughly 20-25 miles away, Lowe's probably 35 miles, Home Depot probably 65 miles. You get the idea. Anyhow...
Tractor Supply carries a "Greenmix" peat moss that is apparently produced by Waupaca Northwoods LLC. It was the only bale within 35 miles that I had found, so I bought it. $13 was cheap. I hadn't used it yet when I was in another town the next day (granddaughter doings ) so I stopped by another TSC and they, too, had a single bale. I figured "why not"? PT Barnum would be proud of TSC!!! I need to get a pH test kit...I'm not so sure of the peat moss, itself. Here's the photos of roughly 1/10th of the 2.2cuft bale. A quarter is thrown in for perspective. The end result was probably two gallons of sifted peat moss and over a quart of "junk". Maybe this is standard for different peat moss brands, I'm a newbie, but...I don't think it is. Btw, the mesh on the screen is 1/4"x3/8".
My personal rating: UGLY...I do not recommend it.
