Living BIO-CHAR

Activated Plant-Based Biochar
100% Natural | Made in Spain
Certified for Organic Farming

Production and Key Properties of Living Biochar:
During pyrolysis, biomass is burned in a controlled environment with very little oxygen. Because only a limited amount of oxygen is available during the process, the biomass does not catch fire. Instead, it is transformed into a stable form of carbon that can be stored and used when needed.
Biochar is a fine, black, lightweight substance composed mainly of carbon.
Nitrogen, hydrogen, and oxygen are among the other elements that remain in the plant-based charcoal after the process.

Biochar creates natural and long-lasting soil fertility, which is maintained by beneficial microorganisms providing immediate, long-term, and reserve effects. It promotes a loose soil structure and improves soil aeration.
Water and nutrients are stored in a plant-available form and can be accessed when needed.

Thanks to its large surface area, biochar offers an ideal habitat for beneficial (aerobic) microorganisms.

Benefits of Using Living Biochar:

1. Increases Soil Fertility
Biochar contains essential elements that your cannabis plants need to thrive, including nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium. It also offers various other minerals that help your plants grow healthily and produce abundant yields.

2. Improves Soil Quality
Biochar plays a significant role in improving the texture of both loose and compacted soils. The vital elements remain stored in the biochar, where your plant roots can find and use them efficiently.
In cases where the soil has poor drainage, biochar improves it and provides roots with the oxygen they need to stay healthy.

3. Improves Water and Nutrient Availability
Although biochar is fine-grained and lightweight, it is highly porous and has a remarkably large surface area. This allows it to absorb extra water and nutrients in its pores.
It also improves the soil’s cation exchange capacity (CEC) – its ability to attract and hold positively charged minerals and other elements essential for plant growth and health.
This means these vital elements are always available when your plants need them.

4. Supports Microbial Life
Due to its porous nature, biochar offers plenty of space for beneficial bacteria and fungi to thrive.
These helpful microbes offer many benefits for plant growth: they increase the bioavailability of nutrients, improve the plant’s ability to absorb vitamins and minerals, and suppress the growth of harmful microorganisms.

5. Regulates Soil pH
Biochar promotes plant health by helping to regulate soil pH. Cannabis grows best in soils with a pH between 6 and 7, meaning the soil should be neither too acidic nor too alkaline.
Soil pH values outside of this range can have various negative effects on your plants.

In summary, Living Biochar by Almicanna is an excellent soil enhancer that supports both plants and the entire soil ecosystem, laying the foundation for sustainable and healthy plant growth.
