Biochar has become increasingly popular among gardeners and farmers as a practical solution for carbon capture. This porous material offers multiple benefits across different garde ning applications. For garden beds and containers, incorporate a few handfuls of Biochar per square metre to enhance soil structure, improve drainage and aeration, and reduce compaction, resulting in stronger plant growth. In compost systems and wormeries, mix Biochar at 10–20% by volume into your bedding. For faster activation, soak it in compost tea or worm leachate to instantly boost nutrient availability and microbial activity. With Bokashi bins, layer Biochar alongside Bokashi Bran to accelerate fermentation while controlling odours and excess moisture. What is Biochar? Carbon Gro biochar is charcoal made through pyrolysis (heating organic waste wood without oxygen). This carbon-negative process captures CO2 that would otherwise enter the atmosphere. The creation of biochar is a carbon-negative process and acts as a carbon sink, helping to lower CO2 levels in the air. Once reintroduced into the soil, biochar can remain in the soil for thousands of years. Incredibly, a single 5 litre pack sequesters approximately 6 kg of CO2, with its porous structure and large surface area making it ideal for long-term soil improvement. Show more
