Biochar, or vegetable charcoal, is a new generation soil amendment , produced through a pyrolysis process (thermal decomposition of biomass in the absence of oxygen) and usable in Organic Agriculture . This stable and highly porous material is recognized for its ability to significantly improve the physical, chemical and biological properties of any type of substrate or garden soil .
It is not a fertilizer, but a long-lasting fertility agent.
Structure and Aeration: Aerates heavy or compacted soils, promotes healthy root development.
Water Retention: Allows water and dissolved nutrients to be efficiently captured and stored.
Soil Life Support: Biochar creates a stable and protective habitat for microorganisms, bacteria and fungi.

Biochar is easy to use and suitable for all crops (pots, planters, open ground, seedlings, etc.).
Recommended dosage (potted substrates): Incorporate Biochar at a rate of 5% to 10% of the total volume of your potting soil or growing mix
Recommended dosage (open ground): Incorporate it into the first 10 to 20 centimeters of soil at the time of planting or by scratching into the surface.
Ideal Mix: It combines perfectly with potting soil, compost, perlite, vermiculite and coconut fibers.

The trick: Before using it, pre-charge your biochar. You can soak it for 24 hours in a diluted fertilizer solution or, ideally, mix it with one to two times its volume of mature compost for one to two weeks. This biological or chemical "charge" ensures that it immediately functions as a nutrient reservoir.
