Supercharge Your Soil with Bioactivated Charcoal: Grow Healthier Plants, Create Nutrient-Rich Soil, and Increase Your Harvest
Better Gardens Begin with Better Soil
The key to growing bigger, more productive, more nutrient-dense plants starts at ground level. Biochar – slow-roasted organic matter inoculated with compost – creates the perfect habitat for soil-enriching microorganisms. Learn to make and use this power-packed soil amendment with long-term benefits for your garden.
Adding biochar to your soil:
- Loosens compacted dirt and improves soil structure
- Decreases the need for fertilizers
- Reduces effects of toxic heavy metals in soil
- Enhances plant growth by storing water and nutrients
- Sequesters carbon and decreases greenhouse gas emissions
- Increases soil biodiversity
“Biochar has been in the news a lot of late, so why isn’t it in your garden? That may be the question you ask yourself as you start Gardening with Biochar. It won't be a question you ask again. Jeff Cox not only makes the science of biochar accessible, he makes it downright compelling. Buy it, or make it (Jeff shows you how easy it is), you will be using biochar in your gardens after this read.” — Jeff Lowenfels, author of Teaming With Microbes, Teaming With Nutrients, and Teaming With Fungi
