I have sprayed the crap out of my peat with tap water and squeezed little handfuls to get the tap out a few times. Then I let it soak in distilled water in the sun for a few days and squeezed tiny handfuls to get the water out. Then I did the same with distilled that I did with tap water a couple times, and I realized somewhere along the way that no, in fact the tap water is NOT a shortcut for rinsing.
TDS is jumping between 66 and 72 still so I dumped more distilled in, squeezed, dumped distilled in again and it’s sitting in the sun again.
What I would like to know before I lose my mind because the next couple of days are supposed to be in the 90s (and feel like 100), can I spread the peat out on baking sheets in the sun for those few days and bake off the excess stuff I don’t want to leech off of it?
Please God say yes. My vertigo is extremely unhappy with me at the moment.
