Homemade Bokashi Composting Supplies for Your
Garden
2
If you are a gardener or a farmer, youve heard
of composting, and you probably already know why
its great for your gardens and the environment.
But what if you dont have enough space for
compost, or the time to do it? The Bokashi
composting method might be the perfect
solution. What is Bokashi composting? Bokashi
is a Japanese word which means fermented organic
matter. Bokashi composting is a process that
mixes microorganisms to cover food waste as it
breaks down, and get rid of foul smell of
decomposition. Many years ago this process was
employed by Japanese farmers, but now this method
is appreciated worldwide by farmers and
gardeners. Essentially, Bokashi composting
pickles food waste, making it break down faster
without any noxious fumes.

Procedure- All your food waste should be placed
in an airtight container, along with a few
sprinkles of Bokashi Compost Accelerator. When
the container is full, let the materials pickle
(ferment) in the container for 2-4 weeks. The
pickling process is responsible for controlling
pathogens as well as breaking down seeds if they
are present in the container. When the food waste
ferments, the microorganisms produce a variety of
vital nutrients including vitamins, amino acids,
trace minerals, plant hormones, and organic
acids. After 2-4 weeks, the content should be
added to your garden soil so that worms, insects
and bacteria like beneficial microbes can finish
their process of digestion. What Goes In- In
homemade Bokashi buckets, you can add kitchen
scraps of all kinds including meat, fish, cheese,
citrus peel, egg shells, and even small bones.
Bokashi composting can be done in a specialized
bin with a drain spout, or any 4-5 gallon bucket
or a larger as per your needs and preferences.
When the bucket is full, set it aside. When you
open it after 2-4 weeks, the contents inside the
bucket will be thoroughly pickled.
4
Benefits- Numerous benefits come from the use of
our Bokashi composting supplies. As it is done in
a closed bin, there are no flies or rodents to
worry about as opposed to regular compost piles.
Also, the closed bin doesnt have any rotten
smellrather, it is scentless when sealed, and
when opened there is only a mild odor like apple
cider vinegar, which means you can keep it in
your kitchen. With the help of our Bokashi
buckets, the amount of waste produced from your
kitchen can be reduced. In addition, there are no
greenhouse gases like methane, carbon dioxide, or
ammonia released as with normal composting. As
result of the effective fermentation in Bokashi
composting, nutrient-rich and bio-active compost
and liquid fertilizers can be formed. Want to
