Bokashi Composting keeps food waste out of landfill and adds life and vitality to your garden at the same time. The Bokashi One bucket can be used indoors and is easier to maintain than a worm farm. An essential for the sustainable home and garden!
(Remember to buy your Bokashi Mix!)
Bokashi Composting is an eco-friendly, convenient and hygienic composting system designed to be used in the kitchen. It utilises food waste to produce a nourishing compost and rich juice which inject life and vitality into your garden.
All food waste, including meat, seafood, dairy, citrus, onions, garlic, egg shells and cooked, raw and processed foods.
Unlike traditional composting, Bokashi is a fermentation process. Bokashi One Mix contains wheat bran and rice husks inoculated with beneficial microbes. In anaerobic conditions (created in the Bokashi One Bucket simply by closing the airtight lid), these microbes break down food waste and create Bokashi juice. Both the fermented food waste and Bokashi juice add nutrients and life to your soil, for strong, healthy, nutrient-dense plants.
The airtight lid and tap make this system odour-free and suitable for indoor or outdoor use.
Bokashi Composting increases the vitality of your garden by nourishing your soil with beneficial microorganisms. Through the Bokashi composting process, billions of microbes are added to your soil which results in a healthier environment for your plants (and then you) to thrive. These microorganisms are essential for promoting soil health and supporting plant growth, providing numerous benefits for your garden including:
Nutrient Cycling:
Beneficial microorganisms break down organic matter in the soil, converting intricate compounds into more manageable forms and helping to release necessary nutrients such as nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium for enhanced plant absorption.
Improved Soil Structure:
The presence of microorganisms can lead to the formation of stable soil aggregates, ultimately improving the overall structure of the soil. As a result, water infiltration is enhanced and the risk of erosion is reduced.
Disease Suppression:
Beneficial microorganisms naturally control harmful pathogens, effectively preventing soil-borne diseases and promoting stronger plant immunity for increased disease resistance.
Plant Growth Promotion:
Beneficial microbes found in the Bokashi One Composting System stimulate root growth and increase plant productivity by producing growth-promoting substances and aiding in nutrient uptake. This organic process results in stronger and healthier plants.
Control of Pests:
Beneficial microbes function as natural pesticides, aiding in the control of harmful insects and pests by maintaining a harmonious ecosystem within the soil.
Soil Aeration and Gas Circulation
Microbes play a crucial role in creating channels and tunnels within the soil, optimising gas exchange for a well-balanced environment of oxygen and carbon dioxide.
Composting with Bokashi One not only reduces waste sent to landfills, but also has a positive impact on your soil. Preparing your soil with Bokashi One now will yield beneficial rewards for the healthy of your soil, garden and you.
Two Bokashi One Buckets means Convenience!
It's important to let the fermentation process finish completely before food waste is buried. Longer fermentation leads to a quicker breakdown of the waste once in the soil, and more wonderful Bokashi juice is produced.
A second bucket gives you somewhere to put your food waste while fermentation finishes off in the first bucket. With a two-bucket system you can bury the fermented food waste from one at any time before the other bucket is full. With only one bucket, once full the waste needs to be buried immediately to continue to use the system.
