David--

The Sphagnum Peat Moss I have is already fine. I have a half of a HUGE bag of it from several years ago.
It is made by Premier. It does not look like it came from the stringy kind of S. Moss you are mentioning. I know the one you are talking about--in my HD, it is by all the small, potted bags of stuff inside the Greenhouse. It is pale tan and, yes, coarse.
The one I have is dark brown, and fine. Would this be just as effective?

Just went and dug out a bag of the coarse I just KNEW I had somewhere....Thsi coarse moss was "rescued" from 6" Orchid Pots that were being tossed when i still "owned" the G-House at my HD--about 10 years ago.
It is extremely dry--and probably needs sterilizing. How????

Your thoughts???? Thanks, G.
