Bokashi Spray

Tags

The term, "bokashi spray," is used to contrast with "bokashi sprinkle." Both terms are used in regards to fermenting food waste, that is, as fermentation starters to make bokashi food waste. The bokashi sprinkle is bokashi bran, a granular solid material, and therefore, is sprinkled onto food waste. The bokashi spray is Activated EM, a liquid, and therefore, is sprayed onto food waste.

EM•5

For soil, foliar feeding, and other uses, EM•5 is used as a foliar spray and for inoculating the soil. It is a more potent version of Activated EM•1 and lasts much longer. It can be made at home using simple ingredients with EM•1, which consists of naturally occurring microbes (lactic acid bacteria, yeast, and photosynthetic bacteria) that are usually not found together. EM•5 is used to directly apply to plants (avoid the flowers in some instances) and to condition the soil.
