I am loving these videos! Thank you. As a tree worker who is learning plant health care, I observe a lot of soil and root treatments including biochar treatments applied to single tree cases. You make a strong case for foliar fertilizer treatments and I wonder why not for trees. Perhaps arboriculture prefers soil injections for practical limitations of drift, access, weather, urban landscape, etc?
Making good charcoal is not difficult from wood scrap, but to make it from leaves or tough grasses you need a good retort, the rest of garden/kitchen scraps I'll compost.
I like these analyses as a reality check on agronomic practices. Question - can you point me to analyses that address the environmental costs (primarily in the release of greenhouse gases in the low-tech production of biochar, such as would be done on an individual level) vs the environmental benefit of the resulting carbon sequestration. I'm concerned that in the short term, I'm doing more harm than good although I'm using an invasive bamboo this is not being used in other applications. Thank you in advance.
