Is it really Compost? Empty Is it really Compost?

This week I went to a nursery to pick some bagged compost. I found a product called "Bumper Crop" The ingredients on the bag looked like a very good blended product to use for compost. One of the items was peat moss.
I emailed the company to find out how much peat was in the 2 cubic foot bag.
WOW! was I surprised by the amount of peat. It had 70% peat moss.
This will really change the Mel's Mix if used as is.
See the description in the photo.

Thanks for letting the folks know not to use this as a compost. I am finding that most of the blends are mostly peat.
