If your tree is struggling from, compacted soil, water logging, poor aeration or near by excavation work, this process can improve the health of your tree.
On average we inject 1kg of enriched biochar blend for every 1m2 under the tree canopy.
Each injection is approximately 65cm under the surface improving the structure of the soil allowing for improved aeration and drainage which in turn results in a stronger, healthier tree.
Firstly, we drill down into the soil approximately 65cm.We then inject high pressure air at 7bar (100psi), this de-compacts the soil and creates voids.
We then inject Enriched Biochar into the voids, this further de-compacts but fills the voids with material that does not degrade allowing air and water to pass easily to the root ball of the tree.
Water falling on the ground now flows into the voids, as Biochar is honeycomb shaped it absorbs the water. Holding it for when the tree needs it.
Trees require a soil with good aeration after Soil Decompaction this allows air to circulate freely around the root ball. Add sunlight and water to create a healthy tree.
Is your garden or open space suffering from poor drainage? Our revolutionary geo-injector provides a long lasting, cost effective and non-intrusive alternative to traditional drainage.
The geo-injector can be used to relieve waterlogging due to compaction on most non-sealed surfaces.
Injecting up to 1kg of molar clay every 1m2 to a maximum depth of 95cm creates a series of mini soak-aways allowing the water to permeate the sub soil and then into the water table. Molar clay is an entirely natural product containing diatoms and clay. They absorb up to 150% of water acting as a buffer reservoir for the roots. Once fully soaked they improve drainage and percolation rates, it also acts as an aerator thus avoiding compaction of the soil.
Firstly, we drill down into the soil approximately 65cm.We then inject high pressure air at 7bar (100psi), this de-compacts the soil and creates voids.
We then inject a soil improver into the voids, this further de-compacts but fills the voids with material that does not degrade allowing air and water to pass easily to the root ball of the tree.
We then inject a soil improver into the voids, this fills the voids with material that degrade over centuries. This creates mini soak-a-ways in the ground increasing the water retaining volume.
Water falling onto the ground now flows into the voids moving the water away from the surface and allowing it to naturally drain into the subsoil.
The soil improver allows air to flow through the voids allowing for a constant aeration which assists in the growth of plants.
Based near Glasgow we treat garden and tree drainage problems in gardens, gravel paths, sports surfaces such as football, rugby and golf courses all over Edinburgh, Central Scotland, the Borders and North of England.
