GreenGro Earthshine Biochar Blend – Soil Amendment with Micronutrients
GreenGro Earthshine is a ready-to-use biochar-based soil amendment designed to improve soil structure and nutrient availability. This blend is ideal for enhancing new or existing soil mixes, supporting microbial activity, and improving the performance of compost teas and other organic inputs.
Earthshine contains a refined biochar base combined with glacial rock dust, humic acid, organic soybean meal, and worm castings. These ingredients work together to support soil texture, moisture retention, and nutrient cycling over the growing season.
Key Features:
- Finely screened biochar for quicker soil integration
- Contains trace minerals and organic matter from natural sources
- Pre-mixed for ease of use—no extra blending required
- Designed to complement compost teas and balanced soil programs
- Supports nutrient availability and soil moisture efficiency
Application Rates:
- Compost Tea: 2–4 oz per 5–10 gallons
- Transplant Hole: 1 tablespoon per 12" x 12" potting hole
- Soil Amendment: 1 lb per 4 cubic feet of new or existing soil
- Large Pots:
- 25 gal pot: 1 lb
- 50 gal pot: 2 lbs
- 75 gal pot: 3 lbs
- Bulk Soil Use:
- 7–8 lbs per cubic yard (light application)
- 15 lbs per cubic yard (heavy application)
- 30 lbs for 1 pallet of new soil or 2 cubic yards of reused soil
Directions for Use:
- Blend evenly into soil before planting or during soil recycling.
- Apply to compost teas or transplant holes as directed.
- Use with neutral media like coco coir or balanced soil mixes for best results.
Key Ingredients:
- Biochar: Charred hardwood processed at high heat and refined to smaller particles (3mm to 26 mesh) for faster effectiveness in soil.
- Glacial Rock Dust: Supplies a broad spectrum of minerals.
- Humic Acid (from Humalite): Supports soil conditioning and microbial activity.
- Worm Castings: Add organic matter and help buffer the soil.
- Organic Soybean Meal: Slowly breaks down into primary nutrients.
Best Practices:
- Avoid overuse, as biochar holds nutrients and water efficiently.
- Store sealed in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight.
- May develop a natural fermented scent over time—this is normal for biologically active amendments.
