I’m a subsistence char person, making it for my compost and garden. In 2015 I began using Josiah Hunts Biochar mix and after a couple of years brewing in the soil, my plants exploded. Each year they seem to get better and my watering is less. I add it to my compost toilet and compost too. At times I do add char to the forests that surround us. I’m striving for fungal compost. My composting is at another level now and I stopped turning it twenty five years ago. That’s a lot of work. My neighbors say that I have gourmet compost.
Yes! The time dimension is really impressive, isn't it? Even after many years of biochar use in my garden, I keep seeing improvements every year. And there is no better way to make compost. Good job, Ken!

What is the ideal ratio of char to mix with compost? up to 50%?
