Horticultural Charcoal Characteristics Source Material: Hardwood or bamboo Produced by: burning at lower temperatures than biochar Uses: Soil amendment to improve soil drainage and aerationPrevents waterlogging, promotes root healthAbsorbs excess nutrients and pollutants, helping balance nutrients Structure: Usually bigger pieces, granules to chips Cost: Material more expensive, processing less expensive Biochar Characteristics Source Material: Hardwood, softwood, agricultural waste How Produced: Produced through pyrolysis, higher heat with absence of oxygen Uses: Soil amendment to improve soil fertilityVery porousEncourages beneficial microorganismsHelps retain moistureCan sequester carbon Structure: Can be fine powder to chunks Cost: Material very cheap, processing takes more time / more complicated Not the Same Thing Some people seem to thing these 2 items are the same, so we wanted to help clear up the confusion. The bottom line is that horticultural charcoal is more versatile in its uses and applications (See above). Biochar serves a narrower role as a soil amendment only.
