How To Use Wakefield Premium Biochar

First, it is important to know that biochar is not intended to be used solely as a soil substitute. That means you need to mix it with other material to get the full benefit. Start with mixing it into your existing soil or with compost. If your soil is in bad shape we recommend as much as a 50/50 mix of biochar and compost to return a strong organic composition to the planting area (using compost) and make sure that healthy mix will last for a long time (using biochar).

How much Wakefield Premium Biochar should you use?

A 1-gallon bag is great to broadcast over ~55 sq/ft. If you are able to mix it into the soil it would mix into the top 4 inches of soil for 8 sq/ft. The biochar should be mixed well so that it is evenly spread throughout the planting area. The best practice is to give the mix a few days to allow the biochar to absorb as many nutrients as possible. Water a few times, too. If you think you need more than a 1-gallon bag you should consider our 1-cubic foot box of Wakefield Premium Biochar.

If you are only able to spread the biochar over the top of the soil it is recommended that you reapply for a few years to get the full recommended volume into your soil.

Wakefield Premium Biochar Soil Conditioner is approved by the USDA as Certified Biobased Product. It is made from soft pine wood and shipped after being rinsed to reduce dust.

How can you use a 1-gallon bag of Wakefield Premium Biochar?

One gallon is best for 2-4 sq/ft of gardening mixed into the top 4″-6″ deep. A good guideline is to make the biochar equal ~5-10% of the total soil content in the area of application. Consider using a bag in any of these projects:

• Flower pots
• Flower beds and bushes around the house
• Patching the lawn that needs reseeding
• Apply to the root area of a tree that you want to plant in the yard
• Add to existing compost pile to speed up the composting process and reduce odors. Biochar is an amazing filter!
• FYI… Not that this has anything to do with plants but you can also use about 2 cups of biochar in your cat litter and it will take away most all of the odor.
