[Tom Miles]

Who has been trying charcoal on plants in small gardens  with what results?

 

Here's a report from an Oregon enthusiast:

Larry had good results with swiss chard and unused barbeque char:

The Master Gardeners in Pickens County, Georgia, got educated peanut hull
char from U of Georgia for tests with tomatoes and blueberries:

Richard has shown us his tests at the nursery level:

And there are a lot of thoughts about charcoal in a number of gardening
books:

Who else has had good (or bad) luck with using charcoal in the garden?
