Product Description

What is HumiChar?

HumiChar is an organic, carbon-based soil amendment containing 50% high-quality humic acid and 50% granulated biochar. This combination of material provides the benefit of the quickly available humic acid, and the long-term soil building qualities of the biochar that will last for decades. Both humic and biochar add carbon into the soil and increase microbial activity, resulting in greater nutrient holding in the soil and better processing in the plant.

Why Humic and Biochar

Biochar’s primary benefits are to the soil. It lasts decades, working to build the soil profile over time. Humic acid’s primary benefits are to the way soil delivers nutrients to the plant. This can be noticed more quickly but does not have as long lasting affect as biochar. HumiChar combines the properties of each material that benefits the soil and the plant, both immediately and over time.

The humic acid and biochar in HumiChar is beneficial to all soil types. Both of these organic materials will not cause harm from over application like a fertilizer. They can be applied at any time, in any amount and as often as desired.

Reach Roots Faster

HumiChar features Dispersible Granule (DG) Technology, which allows particles to disperse when watered. The DG Technology helps the humic acid, and especially the biochar, move past the thatch layer of your lawn or the mulch in your garden bed, and into the soil without any raking, digging, or tilling. Other products with biochar have chunks of organic material that are dusty and messy. These products have to be worked into the soil to reach the root zone and be effective.

Where to Use HumiChar

Established Lawns

Apply HumiChar anytime during the growing season to lawns. The general rate of application is 5 – 10 pounds per 1000 square feet of turf / lawn. Apply more heavily if desired.

New Lawns and Sod Installations

Grass seed planting and sod Installations are a great opportunity to get HumiChar deep into the soil quickly. After tilling HumiChar into the soil, proceed with planting and sod installation as normal.

Gardens and Landscaping Beds

Apply HumiChar around the plants or work into the soil using roughly 1/2 cup of material per plant base area. Apply more heavily if desired.
