By "coconut husk" I assume you mean coir. I regard coir as an inferior substitute for peat moss.

You can buy PBH here:

Rice Hulls Soil Amendment 50 lb - Seven Springs Farm Organic Farming & Gardening Supplies LLC

but shipping costs are high. If you can find a local source and pick it up, better.

Just to clarify, unmilled sphagnum moss is this:
