Amendment Peat Moss
Peat moss is an organic soil amendment derived from decomposed sphagnum moss harvested from peatlands. In cannabis cultivation, it serves primarily as a growing medium component valued for its water retention capacity and acidic pH profile (typically 3.5–4.5). Breeders and cultivators commonly incorporate peat moss into substrate blends to improve aeration, drainage, and nutrient availability in containerized growing systems. Its fibrous structure supports root development across phenotypically diverse genetics. Environmental sustainability concerns have prompted some growers to explore alternatives such as coconut coir or compost-based amendments.

Breeders working with containerized trials often standardize peat-based growing media to isolate genetic expression from environmental variables, allowing clearer phenotype documentation across seed lines and cultivars.
