I was thinking about scraping it threw a screen to get some 1/2in.chunks & use it like perlite to break up the soil a bit.
thats perfect,,thats more less what im doing to,,you can screen it to any size you want,,even dust works well in the garden,,the point of it is to absorb nutrients and stop leaching,,it acts like a sponge and holds on to it,,thats why whatever size you decide to use,charge it first,,by charging it,it already has the nutrients in it and wont suck out the nutrients in your soil,,it does that over time,,but charging is giving it to the roots system imediatly,,they have also proved that it also help in diese and pest,,if you think about it,just as i was telling jumpincactus last night,,when i over dosed,first thing they did was make me drink a huge glass of charcoal then pumped my gut,,the charcaol absorbs the poision and after the pump your gut and you puke to high hell you shit the rest,,same thing in the garden bro,,thats why it would be hard for me to be convinced it dont help in breaking up clat=y base soils and such ,,once you qwench the char let it sit over night to cool off,then dig it out of hole or whatever your using and screen it,,i got a old hand crank meat grinder im using,grind it down to a sausage size,lmao,,them im putting in compost pile after i charge it,come planting time it will be well established and it will go on top 3or4 inch of boxes ,that were most garden veggies are anyway,,and over time and adding compost it will go deeper into soil,,i put my clones in it other day when i thought i was gonna lose power,,i had 1 clone with a lot of roots and 3 others that just barely had roots,,all 4 are still alive and the 1 with lots of roots has new growth,,so it works and if im lucky ,by charging the char and it method of holding nutrients in,might even get a way with no feeding at all,,will see,,media base is peat moss,perlite,fresh compost and very little soil,,so will see
