Neutral peat is peat that has been processed, usually by adding lime or another alkaline material, to raise its natural acidity to a neutral (5.5–7) or near-neutral level. This makes it suitable for a wider range of plants, including those that do not tolerate acidic environments.
A peat substrate is an organic material primarily composed of peat, supplemented with various nutrients, lime, and other components to achieve the desired agrochemical parameters.
Using natural peat moss in gardening and agriculture offers several advantages, particularly for acidifying and improving soil as well as providing water and nutrient retention.
Black block peat is a dense, compacted type of peat harvested in solid blocks. Due to its dark color and advanced stage of decomposition, it is rich in organic matter, making it ideal for improving soil structure and water retention.
