EMIKO Bokashi plant fertilizer

Bokashi plant fertilizer from Emiko is a complete fertilizer that builds humus and promotes vital plants. EMIKO® Bokashi is made from high-quality raw materials. Thanks to the special manufacturing process, the unique recipe, and the long fermentation time, EMIKO® Bokashi has extremely high antioxidant power, which strengthens the plants.

Humus building made easy

EMIKO® Bokashi is a purely plant-based fertilizer made from grain husks, fermented with EM Effective Microorganisms®.

Making good potting soil:

Materials: 95% potting soil, 5% bokashi, watering with EMIKO soil improver, covering fleece or jute bags (farm supply, hardware store)

Directions:

1. Mix potting soil with EMIKO® Bokashi
2. Pour in the mixture until it is moist (test: form a snowball-sized ball out of the mixture – the ball should crumble easily when touched)
3. cover with fleece or jute sacks
4. Let it mature for 2-3 weeks

Planting bed preparation:

As soon as the soil temperature reaches 8°C in spring, work 200–500 g of EMIKO® Bokashi per 1m2 shallowly into the soil. Then moisten the soil with a solution of 20 ml of EMIKO soil improver and 1 liter of water per 1m2. After 2–3 weeks, the microorganisms will have decomposed the organic matter. The soil is now optimally prepared for planting.

Area composting:

After harvesting, leave plant residues on the bed and work a small amount of EMIKO® Bokashi into the topsoil. Mulch with straw, leaves, or grass clippings and water with a solution of 20 ml of EMIKO soil improver and 1 liter of water per 1 m². This will feed and multiply the beneficial soil organisms and optimally prepare the soil for the next gardening season.

Further advantages of mulching:

• Maintaining soil moisture
• Maintaining soil temperature
• Maintaining a good environment for all microorganisms
• Suppression of weeds
• Preventing erosion
• Improvement of the physical constitution of the soil
• Introducing organic material to feed soil organisms

Application on shrubs and trees:

For fertilizing and caring for diseased and weak trees and shrubs, creating EMIKO® Bokashi Depots has proven effective: Fill 15-20 cm deep holes (2-3 per m2) at the outer edge of the tree or shrub crown with 1 handful of bokashi each and then close them. Additionally, water with a solution of 20 ml of EMIKO soil improver and 1 liter of water per 1 m2.

Repotting potted and tub plants:

1. Add 15% potting soil to a plant pot or tub
2. Add 15% EMIKO® Bokashi, press down and water with a solution of 20 ml EMIKO soil improver and 1 l water
3. cover thinly with potting soil
4. Plant plants and fill with potting soil, water

Fertilizing with Bokashi:

Always apply Bokashi at a distance of 10 – 15 cm from the plants.
