Help your customers succeed with these gardening essentials:
These garden essentials help plants to access the nutrients in the soil such as nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium.
Nutrients such as N, P, and S are bound in organic molecules and not easily absorbed by plants (low bioavailable.) Plants depend on soil microbes to access these nutrients.
Infact, microbes feed on these nutrients and release them back into the soil in a form that plants can easily absorb.
This is why the microbe community in the soil is so important for growing healthy plants and produce. The results are healthy green leaves, stronger root development and bigger plant growth without any more synthetic fertilizers!
Use EM-1® to soak seeds before planting, and immediately after transplanting from pots or seedling trays into garden beds or pots to improve root development and nutrient uptake.
Water weekly throughout the growing season for healthy plants, lush growth and increased yields.
Regular use of EM-1® will:
- Improve seed germination and root development
- Increase root size
- Increase nitrogen uptake
- Speed up nutrient cycling
- Improve plant vigor and health
- Restore natural resistance to disease and pests
- Improve water absorption
- Naturally loosen compacted soil
- Improve plant quality: size, color, and shelf life
- Increase beneficial microbial activity
Each handful of EM® Bokashi Bran is teeming with plant friendly effective microbes and can be added directly to your soil or growing containers. Adding EM® bokashi bran to your soil builds a healthier and stronger soil food web that will result in more productive plants and higher yields.
EM® Bokashi Bran is also great for breaking down organic waste in your outdoor or indoor compost bins. Not only does EM® Bokashi kickstart the composting process, but it also creates less CO2 and retains more food waste nutrients—which means higher-quality organic compost for your garden soil, lawn, and plants.
Follow these tips for superior seed germination:
Step 1. Sterilize Seed Trays
Dirty or unsterile containers or seed trays can carry fungus or mold infections that will cause 'Damping Off" - rotting at the base of the sprout. Use APC500 plant friendly, organic cleaner to thoroughly clean containers before planting.
Step 2. Soak Seeds With EM-1 Before Planting
Countless studies have shown that a plant's microbiome affects seed germination, seedling strength, and plant vigor. The microbes in EM-1 increase nutrient cycling and increase water permeability for vigorous seed and seedling growth.
Step 3. Water Seeds With EM-1 Microbial Solution
EM-1® is a probiotic liquid comprising of three groups of beneficial microbes which promote plant health and growth and improves nutrient absorption and soil fertility. Use the EM-1 soaking solution to water your seeds.
Step 4. Apply EM® Bokashi as a top dress
After seed planting, top dress the soil with EM® Bokashi throughout the growing season bi-weekly.
Help your customers grow tons of tomatoes that are better tasting and more nutritious.
Tomatoes are easily one of the most popular crops grown in home gardens. The easy to grow fruit can grow in almost any climate if given 6 to 8 hours of sunlight.
Help your customers increase the number of tomatoes by checking out these 6 simple tomato growing tips and recommending EM-1® and EM® Bokashi for a bountiful harvest of fresh homegrown tomatoes.

What is EM®
Learn the benefits of Effective Microorganisms® so you can invest in health and sustainability.
Learn the benefits of Effective Microorganisms® so you can invest in health and sustainability.
EM is the abbreviation for Effective Microorganisms, a term coined by its discoverer, the Japanese agricultural scientist and university professor, Prof. Dr. Teruo Higa. EM technology has been in use around the globe since 1982.
EM·1® is a multimicrobial mixture primarily consisting of lactic acid and phototrophic bacteria, yeast and ferment-active fungi.
When this mixture of naturally occurring and non genetically manipulated microorganisms comes into contact with organic materials, the microorganisms produce an abundance of natural substances such as vitamins, organic acids, minerals and various antioxidants
The perfect blend of microorganisms in EM generates powerful regenerative forces, which develop astonishing genetic potential in various environments. Originally viewed as an alternative to using chemical agents in agriculture, today EM is used around the world in the fields of environment, industry and health.
