Hi David, there is no industry up there in the north where they cut the Canadian peat, and its sphagnum as opposed to other forms of peat. It doesn't guarentee that you will get good peat, but it does help.apistoguitarra said:what's the benefit of using Canadian moss? I couldn't find any at Home depot, so I just bought Pure Peat Moss (didn't say anything about Canada). It didn't have any fertilizers in it or anything.

The bag should say Pure Sphagnum Peat wherever it comes from.
As for Blackshark667766, I don't know what you've read but distilled water is not poisoness nor does it taste revolting. It does have a funny effect on your mouth but that passes very quickly. That simply the osmotic properties of your skin...
As for your tirade on ancient versus modern, well, it reads like pseudoscience. Do you have any evidence of this need for aeration?
All the posters from England, Ireland and Scotland have told me Irish moss is not usable, it will break down and form ammonia. Same for Scottish Peat. I would caution you in trying to use this stuff.
