Biochar is any type of organic material that has been through a process called Pyrolysis. That’s a Greek word. Pyro means fire, and lysis means separation.

Biochar is simply decomposing materials at high temperatures . Everything turns into gas…except the carbon. After pyrolysis, there is no nitrogen, no magnesium, no sulphur. No nothing except carbon. A carbon skeleton of what it was.

I hope it helps your garden
