Biochar 5dm³

Improve your soil naturally with biochar — a porous carbon-rich soil enhancer designed to support healthier, stronger plant growth.

Biochar helps improve soil structure by increasing aeration, moisture retention and nutrient holding capacity. Its sponge-like porous surface creates the ideal environment for beneficial soil microbes while helping reduce nutrient loss and water evaporation.

Perfect for:
• Vegetable gardens
• Raised beds
• Potted plants
• Indoor plants
• Orchids
• Sandy or nutrient-poor soils

Why Use Biochar?

✔ Helps retain moisture and nutrients
✔ Improves soil aeration and drainage
✔ Encourages stronger root growth
✔ Supports beneficial soil biology
✔ Enhances long-term soil health

How To Use

• In the Garden: Spread a 1cm layer over your soil, then mix it in.
• In Pots & Planters: Mix 1 part biochar with 9 parts potting soil.
• Around Existing Trees: Dig a few holes around the drip line and fill them. 

• Mix it into the top 10cm to 15cm of soil.
• Get it down where the plant roots can actually reach it.
• One and done: It takes so long to decompose that in your lifetime you'll only need to apply once, so you never need to reapply.

Suitable for both indoor and outdoor gardening.
