Why Biochar Matters

Biochar is a carbon-rich soil amendment that enhances fertility and microbial life. In this blend, it supports a healthy root environment by increasing nutrient and water holding capacity while improving airflow in the soil.

Usage Tips

For best results:

• Use terracotta or breathable fiber containers for added airflow
• Avoid compacting the soil—allow for loose, airy structure
• Water thoroughly, then let the soil dry completely before rewatering
