RE: Bokashi - how to compost everything - AND get rid of stinky things!

in #homesteading7 years ago (edited)

Been using EM in all the plants I have in soil....but the amazing part is that it also works magic with hydroponics.

I am using the liquid version, adding just just 1-2 ml per liter of water and it basically eats off any organic material i have in the water and my plats look more vigorous.

Great post!

Oh thats good information, we are thinking of starting up aquaponics so it should work for it too.

Like a compost tea? huh, thats awesome. Ill write that info down in my garden journal (i compile any info that will be useful later on) Thank you!

Yeah works well with aquaponics as well!
Though it might be better not to pour it directly into the fish tank, it might not be effective...better to use them in the bio-filter instead, that will prevent any overload of nitrogen on the fish and will also allow a better establishment of the EM colony.

So any sort of a bio filter or a growing medium like clay balls (sufficient amount) with EM inside will work perfectly to both clean the water and provide sufficient nutrition's to the plants.

Good luck :)

Awesome! Mm, that makes sense. Again thank you for great information! All of this will come to good use in the future :D
