Q1- What sort of packing is being used by Tref Substrates? 

Tref has a great variety of packing solutions:

 

•  We can supply you directly in bulk in your potting soil bunker
•  Big bales in different sizes (from 2,6 to 6 ENm3)

• Bags 10, 20, 45 and 70 ENm3
• Compressed bales (from 225 to 300 ENm3)

 

Q2- What happens with a bog when the extraction of peat is stopped and the bog is abandoned?

In the past old bogs were transformed for agriculture or in some cases there were trees planted to create new forest. Nowadays they rearrange the drain system and divide the area into small sections with little dikes. By doing so they create a new ecosystem where peat starts growing again and finally the result will be a new peat area.

Q3- How much does peat grow per year?

 

Of course that depends on the circumstances of the area, but per year you can expect not more then a few millimetres.
