Carbon Gold Biochar Fertiliser - 500g

Biochar is a charcoal-like substance produced by heating organic material in a low-oxygen environment. It significantly improves soil structure, aeration, and water retention, creating a more hospitable environment for plant roots and beneficial microorganisms.

Yes, the 5-5-5 NPK formula and organic composition make it suitable for a wide range of plants, including vegetables, fruits, flowers, shrubs, and trees.

For best results, apply during planting and again as a top dressing during the growing season. Specific frequencies can vary; consult the product packaging for detailed recommendations.

It is beneficial to mix it into the soil for new plantings. For established plants, scratching it into the soil surface before watering helps it integrate more effectively.

Certified organic means the product is made without synthetic chemicals, pesticides, or genetically modified organisms, adhering to strict standards for organic agriculture set by certifying bodies like the Soil Association and Biodynamic Association.

Yes, this fertiliser is designed to be compatible with other organic soil amendments and garden practices.

The NPK ratio of 5-5-5 indicates the percentage by weight of Nitrogen (N), Phosphorus (P), and Potassium (K) in the fertiliser. These are the three primary macronutrients essential for plant growth.

Ensure the area where the pellets were applied is thoroughly watered. Biochar and nutrients require moisture to begin breaking down and integrating into the soil.

Verify that the correct application rate was used and that the product was watered in properly. Plant growth can take time to show results, especially with organic fertilisers. Ensure other growing conditions (light, water, pest control) are optimal.

This is normal for biochar-based products. Once watered, the dustiness will dissipate as the biochar integrates with the soil moisture.
