COMPOSTS & SOIL CONDITIONERS
Composts and soil conditioners/amendments are designed to be mixed into soil and not for planting directly into. We take no responsibility for the misuse of our products.
BIOCHAR Compost
BIOCHAR Compost is a blend of 10% BIOCHAR and 90% SeaGreens Compost. This is perfect for veggie gardens or as a soil improver to bring back life to depleted soils. It will improve the structure of your soil indefinitely. It will also improve the water holding capacity of the soil as BIOCHAR holds over 2.7 times its volume in water. It also holds nutrients much like water, releasing them into the soil over time.
Not for pots. To be blended into soil & not for planting directly into.

If it is put into the garden raw it will take up nutrients from the soil rather than add them in and provide the full benefit of BIOCHAR. The best application rate for BIOCHAR is between 5% and 20% (5L - 20L per 100L of potting media).
