BioChar - Application
Tips for Maximum Impact
Hydrate Before Use:
Hydrate Before Use:
- Fresh BioChar is hydrophobic. Moistening it makes it effective.
- Properly moistened BioChar is a feast for worms and a home for microbes.
Mind the Particle Size:
- Smaller particles offer greater surface area.
- Ensures water, nutrients, and microbes penetrate quickly.
- Microparticles are ideal for foliar sprays.
Inoculation is Key:
- Microbes don’t eat BioChar—they live in it!
- Inoculate BioChar to enrich it with beneficial organisms.
- Mycorrhizae in BioChar enhance nutrient uptake.
Gradual Integration:
- Add BioChar in small doses.
- Allow the soil to integrate it slowly for best results.
- Avoid dumping raw char into poor soil to prevent plant growth issues.
