I remember when the 108 L was 113 L.  It seems they were able to compress it down by 5 L.  It would be nice if they could compress it into a 100 L sack.

It's also sold in a 62 L size. I just checked the one bag of it I have in the garage. (It's much easier to lift than 108 L.)
 
Incidentally, they use a cursive small L for liter -- an SI no no.

Canadian peat moss is sold in the US in 3.8 cubic foot (108 L) bags.  Is it sold the same way in Canada?

Hi my wife just bought some plant soil today.  It came in 15 l bags.  How do they bag plant soil in the States, is it measured in qts or lbs?  Since soil is solid why wouldn't the bags Doreen bought be weighed in kg? Does anybody know how plant soil in the UK is bagged, in liters or kg or lbs?
