    Canadian Sphagnum Peat Moss

    The Super Jumbo 120
    The SJ120 contains the finest blond Sphagnum Peat Moss from our Northern Peat operation in Prince Edward Island, Canada. The SJ120 is compressed 2:1 with an input volume of 240 CF or 7.3m3.

    This Super Jumbo 120 has the following advantages over the regular Jumbo Bales:

  • Labour Savings
  • One man plus a forklift can unload a truck in 30 minutes.

  • Less Handling
  • One SJ120 is approximately equal to twenty 6cf bales or two Jumbo 55's. You know yourself how much effort it takes to move and break open twenty 6cf bales.

  • No Lifting
  • The SJ120 means no more back problems and insurance claims. A wet 6cf bale after storage can weigh over 200 lbs. Your work crew will appreciate the easy handling of the SJ120.

  • Environmentally Friendly
  • The SJ120 uses 50% less plastic wrapping. This means less landfill cost and less pollution.

    • Blond fibrous sphagnum allows for better aeration and soil structure.
    • pH range should be 3.5 to 4.5
    • Peat should be slightly moist to facilitate wettability and mixing with other products.
