What is BOO-CHAR, Bamboo Biochar
We have a new product available, 'BOO-CHAR'. We make it by burning our waste bamboo with a special technique (explained below), resulting in biochar that we then crush and inoculate with compost or compost tea. It is used as a soil amendment to improve soil structure and fertility, creating living soil goodness for all your green growing things!
Biochar is the end product from burning waste plant material (in our case, bamboo) in a controlled process called pyrolysis. It is a highly porous, carbon-rich material that enhances soil quality.
Biochar has an immense surface area and pore structure that provides a secure habitat for microorganisms and fungi. These pores are also particularly important for water and nutrient retention in the soil.
Agriculturally, it is used as a soil amendment since it helps to increase soil fertility, soil structure, and soil quality. It is also used as a carbon sequestration method.

How to Divide Root-bound Potted Bamboo
Переглядів 73 тис.5 років тому
Tips from the bamboo experts! How to divide and transplant your overgrown potted running bamboo! Over time, bamboo will fill out the pot it's planted in. When this happens, the bamboo will not have room to send up new shoots, and the existing growth will thin out and yellow. When bamboo is root-bound, it won't receive the necessary water and nutrients. Root-bound running bamboo can escape easil...

    I just planted some bamboo to use to feed my goats. I planted in 2 different spots last year. Looks like the one location didn't survive because the chickens got in and scratch it up. I don't see any new growth any more. The other site has a few new canes, but I have caught a couple goats in side the fence. (obviously, they like bamboo) So far, it is still showing life. Just planted another area about a month ago. So far I have managed to keep critters away from it. I am thinking that the goats will help to control the spread. They are obviously eager to do so.
