    Excellent video to educate people on the differences and how they ruin the bogs to get peat. Many have videos that mention there are issues then give the information on what percentage is being harvested and hoed quickly it grows back. That aggravates me hearing them put out false information based on half of the information as if it is all the information, kinda like the current government administration.
    Kudos to you for knowing the truth and telling it all!

    Going back _Years I made my own potting mixes always using Peat Moss / Perlite /Vermiculite growing commercial ornamentals... it was b4 Pro-Mix. Assumed their was a never ending supply of Peat Moss, since it was often sold in 50# Bales.

    So this was a cool video but just to clear it up both peat spagnum and long haired spagnum are both an extremely renewable resource harvested from the same MAN MADE BOG at the end of the growing season the top long haired spagnum is harvested and dried for commercial use then drained rooted a few inches and sun dried to harvest the spagnum PEAT moss anyway you made it seem like it's taboo to use peat when in reality both long hair spagnum and peat moss are extremely renewable also when harvested the bog produces way more peat then long haired moss idk I just wanted to let you know there was a wee bit of "moss information" get miss information anyway besides that good video 😂
