bioCHARGE™: Microbiology & Nutrients

Potent soil requires a vibrant soil food web. All bio365 soils contain a biologically-active, nutrient-rich “base” (we call it bioCHARGE™).

Think of it similar to beer brewing: our bioCORE™ (high-quality biochar) plus specially-selected beneficial microorganisms and nutrient sources combined together and aged in a batch process create a living soil amendment (bioCHARGE™).

Our whole process is undertaken indoors under carefully controlled conditions—this level of attention to detail and control is key to bringing you quality, consistency, and reliable, reproducible performance. Outdoor composting cannot deliver a nutrient source as free of unwanted pathogens and pests as indoor or greenhouse environments require.

bioCORE™ Biochar

bioCORE™, our patented high-temperature, super low-ash biochar. Its unique structure allows it to hold water in very small pores, and this water becomes available to the plant as needed, rather than evaporating into the surrounding environment. This makes our soils more forgiving at the wilting point— an important benefit to growers who like to dry their plants between feeding.

With its very high surface area, super high porosity, low ash, and carbon stability, bioCORE™ provides the optimal physical environment for beneficial soil microorganisms. It also creates a unique ability to hold nutrients, which are then released to the plant over time, on-demand as the plant’s roots draw it out. This makes bioCORE™ the perfect medium to host our potent bioCHARGE™ nutrient base
