Oh, in respects to where to get peat.
I like the jiffy peat pellets, get a fine micro mesh filter bag and head to Home Depot, peat pellets are sold in compact discs that expand when added to water - fill up a bag with them and soak it in water to expand them.
The peat used in them is a nice dark type, similar to peat nuggets - vs. the moss which I don't think works quite as well.
