Indoor Plant Soil Carbon Sequestration

FAQ About Indoor Plant Soil Carbon Sequestration

What role does soil type play in carbon sequestration by indoor plants?

The soil type is crucial in carbon sequestration as it affects the soil's texture, nutrient content, and microbial activity, all of which influence carbon storage capacity. Soils rich in organic matter with good aeration facilitate better root growth and carbon deposition. Peat-based potting mixes and well-aerated loamy soils are recommended for optimal results.
