I've heard a lot about the magnificent properties of this material. Moreover, thanks to the black color, it helps in warming up quicly the soil. Has anyone any experience in that?

I fill up a 55 gal.drum with charcoal that I run over with my truck and crush very fine. I then pour in my ferts and then fill with water. I stir every day for a week, then mix50-50 with compost. Charcoal will build carbon 700 percent, it wont leach. To save money go to u tube and it will show you how to make your own charcoal. Hope this helps
