Description

BioChar DG is a soil amendment made from the carbon skeleton of wood, or other organic matter, through the process of super heating. Every small piece of biochar has millions of molecular bonding sites that hold water, nutrients, microbes, fungi, and bacteria that would otherwise be washed away or die from harsh conditions. Once introduced to your soil, biochar will stay for years, helping build the soil profile. BioChar DG applications result in rich, carbon-heavy soil that feeds itself and the plants growing in it. The Andersons BioChar DG features Dispersible Granule (DG) Technology, which allows particles to disperse when watered. The DG Technology helps the Andersons BioChar DG move past the thatch layer of your lawn or the mulch in your garden bed, and into the soil without any raking, digging, or tilling. The spherical and uniform granules also mean low-dust, making The Andersons BioChar DG easier to work with. Other biochar products have chunks of organic material, are dusty, and messy. These products have to be worked into the soil and then watered thoroughly to reach the root zone and be effective.

    All I Know is that it Worked

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Originally purchased BioChar DG last fall as a recommended soil amendment to help eliminate Poa Triv. After having lawn aerated and treating with Anderson's BioChar, drainage was significantly improved. Still too soon to tell how much impact I may have had on the Poa Triv, but I'm hopeful enough that I purchased this second bag to repeat the process next month. Thank you!

    Not your typical use. . .

    I'll be using my BioChar DG this coming spring in large planters for flowers. The potting mix I'm using doesn't contain any BioChar and this will help out with root growth tremendously. The use is sparingly as to not cause other problems.

    My Go To ~

    The products offered by Andersons are superior. I would ask for consideration that folks who frequently purchase product throughout the year (I am certain there are many of us) are offered a potential loyalty discount in addition to the periodic sales which are offered to the general public. Thank you again for a superior product.

    2nd application and things keep getting better

    I wonder how much more the surface area of the is increased with each application? I wonder if their could be a tipping point where extreme fertility occurs. I don't know but I would like to find out if such a tipping point exists. Stay tuned
