Apparently harvesting peat moss is detrimental to the environment. While coir is not a perfect alternative, it's harvest makes less of an impact on the environment. Anyway, I was unable to procure any b/c of the cost. I ended up using shredded leaves. The leaves will not hold water like the coir or peat moss, but I hope it all turns out OK. We shall see come Spring. I am happy to hear any input you might have. Coir is the more ecologically sound alternative to peat moss. Apparently harvesting peat moss is detrimental to the environment.

My garden is 600 sq. ft. I am in central Ohio (Columbus). Do you have any recommendations or sources? Thanks! Hi,
