Caution depending on your grow method

peat holds a lot of water ..like sponge

hence it holds nute too

this can easy thro your Ph out

leading to the nute burn recovery position

(insert comedic .gif here)

good luck

ps if you must go the chunky but a perlite added is good

I thought peat was just used for its water retention. Why would you want to grow in peat alone?
