Fruit and vegetable scraps make up a large part of household waste. Instead of rotting in a bin, with beneficial microorganisms they ferment without odour and become compost and liquid fertiliser for your plants.
What you need
- Organko set: two Organko bins and a press tool
- EM Plus Balans to sprinkle for fermentation
- a spot in the garden or an outdoor composter for maturing
The process
- Add and sprinkleRegularly add chopped fruit and vegetable scraps to the Organko bin and sprinkle them with EM Plus Balans each time.
- Press downUse the tool to press the contents, pushing out air and making room for more.
- Drain the liquidAfter a few days, drain the fermentation liquid. Diluted with water, it is a fertiliser for your plants.
- Second binWhen the first bin is full, fill the second one the same way.
- Empty into the gardenWhen the second is full, empty the first into the garden or an outdoor composter, where the compost matures until use.
