BioChar - Application

Tips for Maximum Impact

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.
