No. You need to get peat that says it's 100% Sphagnum Peat Moss on the label. This will more than likely be far too high in nutrients seeing as one of the components is "green composted soil", and the other two components aren't even guaranteed to be Sphagnum peat moss.

I don't know where you are located, so that makes it hard to suggest brands/stores to go to an I know that it's very difficult to find pure Sphagnum Peat Moss in European countries. I would start with looking around at plant nurseries or hardware stores that have a garden center/area with plants and soils for sale.

If all else fails, there's always the option of looking around online. However, I don't know how feasible that is for you. Just think of it as a last resort.
