Biochar for soil improvement Made in Manchester from coppiced wood, biochar is fine grained charcoal which helps to sweeten and break down heavy sols such as clay.Dig in liberally to soils before planting or for no-dig gardening add to your compost graduallly throughout the year. Carbon, in the form of biochar, when introduced into soils doesn't add fertility, it creates a 'coral reef', an ideal matrix to house the very microbial communities that make available and cycle the nutrients essential for good plant growth. With biochar we can both sequestrate atmospheric carbon and boost soil fertility. Biochar, when inoculated with compost teas, very quickly begins to work its magic, re-energising degraded soils. Also Barbecue Charcoal available! |
