Well, the peat is an organism with 8 legs so it has to be an insect around the age of 6 months old. After that the cells from the legs explode from the preasure of heat so the answer is, it has to become peat around 8:00 pm!

What is peat moss?
Peat moss is just made up of one of several types of moss in the genus Sphagnum. These plants enjoy growing in wet places, and have become used horticulturally on their own or in potting mixes because of their water retention abilities.
Should we use peat moss in our gardens?
Using peat moss depends on the soil you have. If it is alkaline, then peat moss may help.
What are the uses for moss?
There are a whole lot of uses for peat moss that you may not have thought of. The most common uses for peat moss have traditionally been centered around composting. Peat moss makes a great medium for composting, and is very commonly used because of the ease with which it breaks down, as well as its ability to mask the smell of decaying material. However, you can also use peat moss for anything that requires a little odor control. For example, people have been known to use peat moss to help keep their garbage can odors controlled, and have even noticed that it helps keep pests away.
Is peat the same as top soil?
No! Top soil is chemicals and nutrition put into dirt making the plants grow with better chemicals and nutrition, making a faster growth proses. Peat or peat moss is shaving of dead bark or wood drowned and then dried, this may help the plant a little with growth and a few other things.
How do you treat weeds on a staghorn fern?
Manual removal, relocation and repotting are ways to treat weeds on a staghorn fern. The tropical epiphyte in question (Platycerium spp) most famously graces hanging baskets, tree branches and wall mounts. A problem with weeds may indicate a location prone to wind-dispersed weed seeds and therefore may warrant regular repotting of the medium (compost, peat, rich potting soil, sphagnum moss ) or location rotation.
Are leopard frogs poisonous?
They are not poisonous. But you may see the Northern Leopard frogs in old fields, meadows, grassy-sedge woods roads and grassy roadside ditches. Juveniles are often seen resting on sphagnum moss at the edge of roadside ponds.
When was May Moss born?
May Moss was born in 1869.
When did May Moss die?
May Moss died in 1948.
Why are they non renewable?
Peat is formed from the roots and stems of dead plants, primarily sphagnum moss, in large marsh and swamp areas over the course of hundreds or thousands of years. As each succeeding generation of plants die, they leave their remains. Because of the anaerobic conditions these remains can not fully decay, and thus accumulate, layer after layer. There is debate as to whether or not peat is actually non-renewable. Peat forms at a rate of about a millimeter a year. As such, it can take over 300 years to replace a foot of harvested peat. Because of the huge abundance worldwide of peat bogs, this is not as big of an issue as it may seem. However, a perhaps greater issue with the use of peat is the method by which it is harvested. Peat bogs are very biologically diverse areas, home to a huge number of animal and plant species. When peat is harvested, drainage channels are cut into the bog, drying it out, and essentially killing the entire ecosystem. Although laws exist requiring harvesters to restore the wetlands to their previous condition, doing so does not fully restore the habitat. Once the area is killed, it can take hundreds of years, if ever, for the ecosystem to restore itself. Previous answer: (Peat is non-renewable because it is a type of rock/mineral which can take eons to grow back, classifying this as non-renewable.)
Peat wax is used for?
Peat wax is a hard, waxy material that comes from peat. It is used to prepare molds. It may also be found in some plastics.
What is the habitat of pitcher?
This species is found in damp, even swampy locations, usually in the presence of sphagnum moss. It can be seen growing in fields among other short plants and grasses. May be seen growing in side ditches or anywhere sufficient moisture is present. It may also occur in a woodland setting but this is rare because of its light requirements.
What is Johnny Moss's birthday?
