Description


Additional features

  • Traditionally used by Japanese farmers as a soil amendment to increase the nutrient level and microbial diversity of the soil
  • To reduce the fermentation time and create an even more powerful compost, just add 1 tablespoon of Terra powder to a 2 lb. bag of Bokashi
  • Designed to use one bag of Bokashi for each All Seasons Indoor Composting Bucket

 


When using with the All Seasons Indoor Composting Bucket:
Use one bag of Bokashi for each Composting Bucket. To reduce the fermentation time and create an even more powerful compost, just add 1 tablespoon of Terra powder to a two pound bag of Bokashi.


When used directly in soil:
In general, apply All Seasons Bokashi Compost Starter at a rate of 200 grams per square meter on the surface of the soil. For soils that have low fertility or little organic matter, use up to 1 kilogram per square meter. Sprinkle in house plants one or two times per month.


In a kitchen compost bucket, apply All Seasons Bokashi Compost Starter directly on top of kitchen food waste and close the lid. It is very important to cover the entire surface of food waste with Bokashi. When added, Bokashi will begin a fermentation process that will neutralize odors, increase the mineral content and prepare food waste to become high quality compost. Repeat the process, until the bucket is full.


When you use All Seasons Bokashi to maintain high populations of beneficial and efficient microbes in the soil, they will:


  • Promote germination, flowering, fruiting, and ripening in plants
  • Improve physical, chemical, and biological environments in the soil and help to eliminate soil-borne pathogens and pests
  • Enhance the photosynthetic capacity of plants and ensure better germination and plant establishment
  • Increase the effectiveness of organic materials as fertilizers
  • Eliminate putrefactive soil that stresses plants

      MAKES COMPOST CROCK LESS ODOROUS

      By Sylvester017

      from Los Angeles County, CA

      About Me Enthusiast

      Pros

      • Consistent Performance
      • Easy to use

      Cons

      • Bag Doesn't Re-Seal Well

      Best Uses

      • Kitchen Compost Crock

      Comments about SCD World All Seasons Bokashi Compost Starter:

      The Bokashi works well to keep the kitchen scraps from smelling badly although the composting Bokashi has a slightly unusual smell of its own -- but still better than plain mildewing kitchen scraps. I use it in my kitchen compost crock and after it fills up, I dump the crock contents into my Wizard Jr. composter outside. The Wizard Jr. filled up fast from my greens and browns and I'm starting a second compost bin while Wizard Jr. finishes the first compost job. Although Bokashi is a wonderful product, the bag it came in wouldn't re-seal like expected. My recommendation is that you either order the Bokashi Caddy for storage or have a plastic container and scoop handy to store the Bokashi powder.

          The product seems to accelerate the decomposition of so much garden and produce waste. It is simple to use and smells good.

            There are many other good ways to create compost, for example, worm composters. But this method is more simple, easy, and relatively clean than other methods.
