anyway, I had read that coco coir is more enviromentally sound since it uses ground up shells...instead of using peat moss....
thx for the answer....
Yeah, that’s a selling point. Peat is such a better growing medium, though. And, I’m pretty sure Canada isn’t going to run out of peat bogs in our lifetime.
Peat Bogs aren’t NEARLY as glamorous as, say, saving the Rain Forest. You’ll never see any of the chi-chi Enviroweenies up to their waders in a Peat Bog, LOL!
Same thing with Cypress Mulch - which I love because it WORKS WELL and is light enough for me to handle a big old honkin’ bag of the stuff.
I had many customers railing on me at the Garden Center for even daring to sell it because I was personally ‘killing the Florida Everglades.’ (It’s from fallen and rotting wood. They’re not clear-cutting the Everglades to make mulch!)
Yep. I did it! It’s all on me, LOL! Now, let’s see you bike down from ‘The People’s Republic of Madistan’ (no flying! no car travel!) to the Everglades and pet a poisonous snake or an alligator and tell them how much you care!
Oy! These people!
