Product Review

The Wakefield Biochar Soil Conditioner is certified by the USDA and is 100 percent biochar. Made from pine wood. Use biochar to improve the soil and establish long-term benefits to your plants, flower and lawn. Pure biochar needs to be charged with organic material and water before it can fully benefit your soil. That means you should mix it with natural soil mixes like compost, worm castings or healthy top soil. It is recommended to apply water to biochar/soil mix for a few days before planting. Use biochar to improve the soil and establish long-term benefits to your plants, flower and lawn. Healthier Soil Vegetables and flowers are bigger and more abundant Drought resistance Retains water better than compost and peat moss Long-lasting love for your soil Biochar benefits the soil for 100s of years BONUS: Reduces Global Warming. Biochar returns carbon back to the soil that would've been released as CO2 into the atmosphere. Also called carbon sequestration, this "carbon negative" process can help stop global warming. New plantings and prep for your garden soil Apply to ~5-10% of the soil with biochar. Mix well into the soil. If possible, give the mix several days to fully 'charge' the biochar. You will see improved results if you combine it with natural soil mixes or compost. You can spread 1 cu/ft bag of biochar over ~375 sq/ft of soil. This is a typical application for existing lawncare. In very poor soil conditions apply a 50/50 mix of biochar and organic compost to the planting area. This new mix will work its way into the existing soil. Biochar is not intended to be used solely as a soil substitute.
