Premium Biochar with CarbonBoost™

How to use

Mix Premium Biochar with CarbonBoost into soil so it makes up about 5–10% of the finished mix by volume.

• Pots, raised beds, and gardens: Mix thoroughly into the soil or growing mix.
• New lawns, seed, or sod: Mix into the top layer of soil before planting.
• Existing lawn repairs or patches: Aerate, spread by hand or shovel, then rake into the openings. Spreading and raking without aerating is another option.

Measure your mix

Use the same scoop or bucket for both materials. For a 10% mix, combine 1 part product with 9 parts soil; for a 5% mix, combine 1 part product with 19 parts soil. Measure by volume, not weight. This product is a soil amendment and should not be used alone as potting soil.

Containers

1. Choose a pot with drainage holes. Measure the product and potting soil, then mix them thoroughly in a separate container.
2. Add the mix around the roots and gently firm it, leaving about an inch below the rim for watering.
3. Water after planting according to your plant’s needs. Check the soil moisture before watering again.

Raised beds and garden soil

1. Remove weeds and debris, then loosen the soil in the area you plan to amend.
2. Measure for the volume of soil you will actually mix. For a new bed, combine the materials in a wheelbarrow or other container; for an existing bed, spread the product evenly and work it through the loosened soil.
3. Plant seeds or seedlings according to their planting directions. Water as appropriate for the plants and check moisture regularly.

Lawns

For a new lawn, incorporate the product evenly into the top layer of soil before seeding or laying sod. For repairs to an existing lawn, aerate, spread by hand or shovel, and rake into the openings for the preferred approach. Spreading and raking without aerating is another option. Small garden spreaders can clog with the pre-moistened product. Follow the seed or sod supplier’s planting and watering directions.
