Hi All,

This is a great time of year to collect Horsechest nut kernels and nuts, char them in your charcoal making bins.

You will end up with balls of charcoal which you can render down for addition to your Terra Preta compost bins.

Kids nowadays are not interested in conkers so they are plentiful and available for charring. The fact that they are green should ensure that you get a good supply of charcoal.

The bio-oil condensates within the kernels and nuts will crystallise and be available to the micro-organisms as a food source once rendered down.
