I fermented 3 5gal pails with bokashi for 2 weeks. Burried the pails and waited 2-3 weeks. Turned it will a pail of screened forest leaf mould. I just went out and dug up some naturally occurring leaf compost and screened the debri out. Then planted many young autos in the soil and mulched it. On week 3-4 I think

Fermented small partical that speeds up composting and will ferment whatever you contain it with. For instance, my aerobic compost is ready in 3 weeks if I turn it once a week. To be honest Iv never done it with out probiotics but with the amount of dirt I handle I like to make sure its not gonna get me or the plants sick. The goal is to ferment and not putrify. Thus is kimchi farming haha

From website.
We make GRO-KASHI with conscious farmers in mind. The initial brew is made with ancient red wheat bran*, structured spring water, beet juice*, EM-1 probiotics*, EM ceramics, vitamin and enzyme complex, volcanic trace minerals* and pure holistic thoughts* to supercharge our microbes (* means organic).


Organic thoughts included..... Hippiess

Is it affordable? I buy em1 and peat moss and get pails of grinds from coffee shops. The coffee is "pasteurized" haha since it was brewed with boiling water. I'd get sawdust if I would just drive to the lumber mill.

Or imo? Bamboo stuffed with cooked rice. Left outside in the shady moist garden area for 2-3wks then emptied into a CLAY pot with molasses or fish aminos to some ratio that I don't remember. All this and water in the pot and covered with newspaper and a string for another 2wks. Smells pretty good haha

The rice wash lacto we all make. Inoculate bran with it. Google it and see in YouTube. Easy to do it

Ah yea. Em-1 is easy enough to extend and then mix with rice wash. Honestly I never eat rice these days. Rice wash works awesome as compost activator and septic treatment.

If collecting local BIMs in a jar and rice wash, you wouldn't buy EM-1, though you could propagate / extend it.

The Bokashi is just the anaerobic activity lacto fermentation. The ones you capture in your rice wash are the prevailing champs in your area. They've beaten out all comers and are best suited for the job.

And they're free

Free until I buy rice. Granted that isn't necessarily expensive. Idk I just like the guaranteed quality of a lab brew. I drink it and give my pets a few tablespoons in their water. I'm even skeptical about making sour dough starter
