Looks ok for use with most Carnivorous Plants to me.

The coarse green may be better but may not be available to the consumer.

You may want to check with some of the other German growers as a different grading system is used than the US for the different qualities of peat moss. I seem to recall that black peat moss was very high quality (or was it the other way around)

This product can not be used for carnivorous plants? If we use the plants will die?

What does the ingredient list say, and from where was this peat moss collected?
What store was it bought?

Some of the "blue" mixtures look fertilized which is generally not a good idea with CPs.

That one specifically looks fertilized way too much for my liking. I would personally go with something in the "green" line link that Not a Number posted.

Hi Sunyboy, what country are you from?

From what I can tell of the ingredient list the peat you're showing has nutrients added by saying "with well balanced main and micro nutrients".

What you need is to find a bag of sphagnum peat moss that says something like "100% organic peatmoss". One which hasn't had any nutrients added.

You want the Terracult Green - block or milled which is pure Sphagnum peat moss. The Blue product has substrates (clay) and fertilizers added, I didn't catch that before.

Medium through Coarse grades.
