Activated horticultural charcoal powder is a finely ground form of activated charcoal specifically designed for use in gardening and horticulture. It is highly porous and has a large surface area, which makes it effective for various applications, including soil improvement, water filtration, and odor control. Below is a detailed description of activated horticultural charcoal powder:

• Base Material: Typically derived from natural sources such as hardwood, coconut shells, or bamboo.
• Activation Process: The charcoal is activated through a process that involves heating it at high temperatures in the presence of steam or gases, creating a highly porous structure.

• Appearance: Fine black powder.
• Texture: Very fine, lightweight, and powdery.
• Particle Size: Typically ranges from 10 to 50 microns.
• Porosity: Highly porous, with a large surface area (up to 1500 m²/g).

• pH Level: Neutral to slightly alkaline (pH 7-8).
• Carbon Content: High carbon content, usually over 90%.
• Ash Content: Low ash content, typically less than 5%.
• Moisture Content: Less than 10%.

• Soil Amendment:
  • Improves soil aeration and drainage, especially in heavy or compacted soils.
  • Helps retain moisture in sandy soils while improving overall soil structure.
  • Enhances the availability of nutrients by adsorbing and slowly releasing them to plants.
