Introduce Fundamental Microorganisms To Your Soil To Increase Your Plants Access To Nutrients Southern Oregon Bokashi is an easy to use highly effective probiotic for soils. The proprietary bacteria and production techniques create a breeding ground for beneficial bacteria in your root zones The Dry Bokashi has microorganisms that are placed into a dormant state by controlled drying of the product. This allows for the Dry Bokashi to be reactivated at a later point for up to 2 years after the production date and is quite useful in kitchen composting to absorb some of the excess moisture. Southern Oregon Bokashi is composed of symbiotic microorganisms (Lactic Acid Bacteria, Yeasts, and Photosynthetic Bacteria) grown onto a grain substrate that when utilized has been shown to: Breakdown nutrients from the soil therefore making the nutrients more available to plants Reduce the amount of fertilizer needed to achieve healthy productive plants Increase microbial activity in soil and, as a foliar spray, on leaves Improve soil structure by creating aggregates and increasing water holding capacity, therefore, reducing runoff and soil erosion Increase photosynthetic capacity of plants Suppress soil borne disease and pests Improve plant growth and fosters the formation of larger flowering sets Dramatically speed up composting of manures and organic waste Can be used in conjunction with organic, synthetic fertilizers, and other mycorrhizal products Provides high levels of polysaccharides, micro-nutrients, beneficial enzymes, and organic acids A special note for those who utilize synthetic fertilizers and pesticides: If one is planning on utilizing Southern Oregon Bokashi in conjunction with synthetic fertilizers do not apply at the same time. Allow for a couple of days between application of Bokashi and fertilizers. Apply the fertilizers initially and the bokashi secondarily. This will therefore not stress the beneficial microorganisms as much with the detrimental osmotic effects of the salts from the fertilizers. It is advantageous to increase the rate of inoculation of Southern Oregon Bokashi to offset the detrimental effects. If utilizing petroleum based pesticides refrain from applying the two in combination. The microorganisms in Southern Oregon Bokashi will tend to neutralize the compounds.
