Peat has been the backbone of soilless plant production for decades, but growing environmental concerns and tightening supply are forcing the industry to rethink what comes next.
In this episode of the AgriCurious Podcast, Dennis sits down with Dr. Jeb Fields and Dr. James Altland to discuss the Soilless Substrate Project, peat alternatives, stratified substrates, and what growers can realistically do to prepare for a peat-limited future.
