Terrarium and Houseplant

Demeter Biochar is great for growing indoors and out. 

Add Demeter Biochar to houseplant soils to improve moisture retention, reduce nutrient leakage and increase aeration in the root environment to support healthy growth from your houseplants and keep your terrariums thriving. 

By reducing compaction and facilitating the movement of water through houseplant soils, Biochar can reduce the risk of problems like root rot which are caused by plant roots sitting in water. 

By tailoring application to the needs of different plant species and considering the unique environment of your home, Demeter Biochar can help keep moisture loving plants satisfied, stop others from getting soggy, stop nutrients washing away and promote healthy plant growth. What’s more, it can play a part in reducing the houseplant industry’s reliance on peat, which is traditionally used to retain moisture.

Biochar for Terraria

Terraria thrive or fail on their moisture balance, which is why Biochar’s structural ability to repeatedly absorb and release water is so helpful. It does the same with nutrients, retaining them before slowly releasing them into the terrarium environment for your plants to use. 

Demeter’s pure plant Biochar provides an environment in which beneficial microorganisms can thrive, assisting with your terrarium’s natural cycles and supporting plant growth.

Biochar is excellent for water and air filtration and can remove contaminant impurities from your terraria as well as preventing unpleasant odours as well the growth of unwanted fungi. 

Biochar is not suitable for use with carnivorous plants.
