Hug A Plant Charcoal for Plants

Charcoal acts as an excellent soil conditioner, thanks to its high potassium content and low cost, it's a suitable replacement for lime in soil additive mixes. 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.
