100% Natural Horticultural Charcoal For Orchids, House Plants And Soil Additive
Charcoal increases the soil's ability to hold onto plant nutrients and beneficial soil microbes by slowing or reducing the leaching of nutrients
by rain or watering.
The low density of charcoal lightens heavy soils, which allows better root growth, increasing drainage and allowing air into the soil.
1. As a Soil Conditioner
Charcoal acts as an excellent soil conditioner, thanks to its high potassium content and low cost,
it’s a suitable replacement of lime in soil additive mixes. What’s more, you can also use it for bedding organic insecticides or weedicides as well,
as it helps to sweeten mulch and bring it at the optimal pH, especially for roses.
2. Neutralizes Plant Poisons
Walnut trees produce a hormone called Juglone, which releases into the surrounding soil by leaves that wither and fall to the ground.
It is toxic to any plant that strives to establish in the vicinity of the walnut.
When walnut trees fall, the decomposing roots continue to release the poison.
3. Anti-Fungal Protection
In research published in Frontiers in Plant Science, it states that adding charcoal to the soil is an effective strategy to
manage and reduce fungal infections in plants.
As charcoal is one of the most potent ways to kill the mycotoxins that mold creates, using it in your garden is surely going to keep fungal infection at bay.
4. Organic Insect Killer
If scientific reports are anything to go by, natural charcoal is
a beetle, having a voracious appetite when it comes to grain products like beans, flour, pet food, dried flowers, cereals, pasta, and so on.
5. As a Soil Additive
There is a reason why store-bought soil mixes contain charcoal. When included in potting soil, charcoal soaks up the nauseating odors of compost and manure,
while leaving the nutritional integrity of the mixture intact.
You can even add a few charcoal pellets to your potting mix, in case the smell becomes too much to bear.
