Wakefield Compost HERO is made with quality biochar, organic compost and mycorrhizal fungi. Wakefield HERO blend is 20 percent biochar. Premium biochar provides reduces the need for chemical fertilizers and naturally increases microbial activity in the soil. This is a long-term solution that will benefit the soil for 100s of years. All you need to do is mix it into existing soil to get started. The HERO line of soil amendments includes compost and mycorrhizal fungi to ramp up the microbial activity, water retention and your soil’s ability to feed your plants. With mycorrhizal fungi, you are also reducing the environmental stresses on your plants. Wakefield Compost HERO is truly an OMRI-listed product. The compost in the HERO blend is aged. This means that the feedstock has gone through a 4 to 6-month thermionic windrow process. The temperatures are documented weekly so that the material reaches between 130 and 160 degrees. This allows active fungi and bacteria to push the decomposition process. After the windrows have matured, the material is screened and rests an additional 30-day to ensure matured cured compost. This avoids any risk of hot or unfinished compost. Wakefield is keeping it simple. Just mix Compost HERO Biochar Blend into 10 percent by volume of your soil. Add seeds or starter plants and some water. Then tend and care for your garden as you normally would. Mix into the top 4 inches of soil for 4 square feet. The HERO biochar blend should be mixed well so that it is evenly spread throughout the planting area. The best practice is to give the mix a few days to allow the biochar to absorb as many nutrients as possible. Water a few times, too.
