Morning urine is way easier ... don't need compost. I get charred wood from the burn piles in the 'crown land'. First I rehydrate it for 3-5 days and then add urine. I put it in my compost and add the compost everywhere. My future self now has a gift :)
In general Activated Biochar is a highly porous, carbon-rich soil amendment that improves soil structure, water retention, and nutrient availability, promoting overall plant health
A real process to make bio char, see videos on how to make. It's a science and an art, not hard but you do need to know some particulars. Well worth it.
@@Jules-740 You mean charcoal ... Magic isn't real ...soil nutrients are depleted ...and require the human to maintain soil nutrients by further additions of nutrient or green material ..during the process of farming.
@@oftin_wong No not charcoal. That is something different. Just do a little research and learn about it. I think that it helps improve the soil quality. It is not a nutrient itelf but it absorbs and houses them which is why you would want to charge it before applying it to your soil otherwise it will rob your soil of nutrients and minerals and other biologicals. It was discovered in the Amazon forests. Farmers back in the ancient times used it to improve their soil.
@@Jules-740 It's charcoal my friend I'm a qualified scientist Biochar is just a fancy made up word Comprising of two words "biological charcoal"... Yet charcoal is charcoal Placing it underground doesn't make it into something different. And as it decays in the soil it releases carbon dioxide gas which is very good for plant growth ..but it won't do that forever ..as everything has an expiration date because of its rate of loss ..nothing lasts forever
If your plants need potassium, ok give it some char or wood ash. But the claims here in this vid are only anecdotal and not based on soil science. Go easy on the potassium, start giving a bit to potassium loving plants like tomatoes, cantaloupe, and melons. Too much potassium can interfere with the plant’s uptake of calcium and magnesium.
For years we have used the ash from our wood heater in the garden, it was called ash not biochar. Seems to me that they have taken an old well used idea and rebranded it to make it marketable.
Science would be to grow a control group that does not get the compost tea etc and comparing the performances of the same type of plants receiving the different treatments.
@@oftin_wong You need to mix the clay with the sand. Adding sand on top only, will not change the overall drainage properties, since the layer of clay will still impede the flow of water exactly as before.
@@lxmzhg not entirely ...I'm not talking about 1 inch of sand More like a few feet ...it's enough to create drainage away from the root system and having the clay at that level is great for the roots because it holds more moisture than the sand It really depends on what you are growing ...vegetables for example have a very shallow root system A foot of sand over clay would be enough ....an avocado tree ...would need a few feet of sandy soil over the clay, eventually you will get some mixing through biological activity But you really don't need to be mixing your soils like you suggest, stratification of soil is common in nature, root rott is a problem for surface feeding roots but tap roots search out water from depth. Also mixing your sand and clay doesn't create a pathway for moisture to travel away from the clay as the clay still retains the water amongst the sand particles ...you really want a layer for drainage above the clay to elevate your feeder roots

But you did not explain how you got the materials to mix is it burnt wood you crush and what type of compose is it chicken or cattle manure , this is not quite clear
It doesn't matter what type of compost. Compost is a mixture of any decayed material. It can be food scraps, grass cuttings, branches/leaves, old plants, weeds, etc. Compost is usually not manure, manure is manure. And yes you can use any woody material to burn, a lot of people like bamboo. I use pine and cedar that has fallen through the winter.
Also, get a aerator in the bottom. That will really blow up the microbes and charge it like crazy. Then mix it all in soil and boom. Almost like terra preta.

So great idea, I will try this because I just begin my new home gardening
🙏🙏🙏THANK YOU AND GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR GARDEN SOIL AND FRUITS. 🙏🙏🙏WE DO THIS AT OUR FARM. IT'S SOIL SCIENCE. 🙏🙏🙏
This is fantastic work for the health of soil and plants. Thanks

thank you for shearing this video.
but what is compose tea?
look up David The Good and he has videos on Compost Tea
Hi TM Baagh, can I use charcoal bricket powder instead of biochar, thanks.
Thank you very much for sharing this useful information 🌝👍
I made and used carbonized rice hull/husk as a mixture instead
Great source of natural silica! Only thing better than rice hull or biochar... is, of course, BOTH 👌
Add banana, cow urine it multiplies microorganisms. It is ancient Indian panchagvya
Also add people poop.
@@lxmzhg that's your favourite method right 😂
@manukahoneyguru no problem bro it will store 2 months scitifically cow urine is good for agriculture .
Pee on it for potassium !
The Indians had bananas ? My local market is out half the time.
Whatever you add to your soil is usually depleted within a month under average to high rainfall
But not charged or activated biochar. It used to be used in the Amazon in ancient times.

Magic isn't real ...nutrients are used up in any soil ..and depleted over time

Helpful information.
Dilution not required?
Science would be to grow a control group that does not get the compost tea etc and comparing the performances of the same type of plants receiving the different treatments.
I use 13 13 13 with great results and a lot cleaner, easier, quicker, and actually works
Soak the biochar in a bucket of worm tea to charge it up!
Is the compost tea aerobic or anoerobic ?
I have heavy red clay. No or little drainage so how will this help?
You need sand and organic matter, if you have the option of adding it as a layer on top of the clay ..you'll be golden
@@oftin_wong You need to mix the clay with the sand. Adding sand on top only, will not change the overall drainage properties, since the layer of clay will still impede the flow of water exactly as before.

Composted chicken manure Coco coir and add plenty of organic mulch
Activated Biochar where do you buy that
You can activate yourself by heating it in a pot without water for about 20-25 min
can i use this mixture on my nursery i mean seeds?
What to do with remaining sitted biochar solid?
That's great 😊
Can someone use urine instead of Compost Tea??

how to make biochar?
Haters gonna hate
Ignorance with a voice. They have not seen the studies from the Amazon of ancient people soils still vibrant because of their knowledge of biochar.
How about just using charcoal ash from the grill?
Because of all the toxic chemical in it. Check out videos on how to make biochar, it is a process.
Have you checked under a microscope to see whether aerobic or anaerobic microbes are present ?
Use cow urine instead of water
And how do you obtain that? Is it like milking? There's a bull in a field down the road.
@@celestesmith6060 ))))))))))))))))))))
Use your own urine, especially the first one in the morning.
WHY do you have to cover the pail?
@bjohnston3659 probably to prevent insects and animals from drowning in the bucket.
@@karennewberry4694 that's what I thought but then I was wondering if the process has to be protected from light or something. Thanks for your trouble
Ash is different from biochar
A thousand years ?
Also, get a aerator in the bottom. That will really blow up the microbes and charge it like crazy. Then mix it all in soil and boom. Almost like terra preta.

Your biochar looks like chalk coal to me ??

Biochar is amazing
On the contrary, can you offer us any😅organic fertilizer that is the better than TM 😊😊😊j
Btw, perhaps you were not told that talking the way you talk is unkind and you presumed you smart.
Read a good book.
I am an actual soil scientist. This video is complete nonsense.
Isn't charcoal bad for the soil? This is what I know.
LOL
This video mislead the gardeners, , where is scientific evidence?? Does charcoal have micro nutrients??
That just means you're in thousands of dollars of debt, for a useless degree 😂
Then you would know about activated or charged biochar. I call BS on YOU.
