Making biochar at home is a simple, rewarding, and eco-friendly way to improve your soil while reducing waste. The process starts with selecting the right biomass, such as wood chips, leaves, or agricultural leftovers. Once you have your materials, you can produce biochar using a basic kiln or a pit method. The key to high-quality biochar is carefully managing temperature and oxygen levels during pyrolysis to ensure optimal carbonization.
Before applying biochar to your soil, it’s important to activate and condition it for the best results. Mixing biochar with compost or nutrient-rich materials enhances its ability to retain moisture and nutrients, making it even more beneficial for plant growth. Once prepared, biochar can be added to your garden or farm to improve soil fertility, boost water retention, and promote healthier crops.
