peat moss for germination

I just came back from Menards, trying to find that coco stuff but no luck. All I could find was peat moss, is this okay to germinate with?

peat moss is not really a good way to start your seedlings, because it is alive, & it will eat some of the nutes, before they even have a chance to get to your roots, & this will eventually cause problems in the future if your grow isnt in a totally controlled enviroment, meaning the ph of water, soil , etc.. & may also lead to deficinices..or however you spell it...lol, & all this i had to learn the hard way, so my advice to you would probly be to just popp'em straight into the soil, get good quality soil & you should be set!

if i did not have a starter mix (nothig in it no food goog drainige stuff) id just use reg potting soil or whater im growing with

Thanks for the replies...This going to be the start of my second grow. First time around germinated with the jiffy peat pellets, but now I can't find those around here either. Did pick up some new soil...Pro-Mix (Ultimate Organic Mix) can't find any NPK info on the bag. Now to decide which strain to start.
