Bokashi composting is one of my favorite ways to make extra use of an abundance of food scraps. By building a simple bokashi bin or bokashi bucket, and using inoculated bran as a fermentation agent, you can 'pre-digest' food scraps before you put them into your soil.
It's an absolutely amazing way to compost quicker, and compost MORE. You can compost meats, fats, oils, and cooked food with bokashi, none of which you'd put in your hot compost pile or worm bin.

But what’s the real reason behind this advice? It's not because you'll fry your plants - ever heard of rain?!
Overhead watering can lead to leaf diseases for some crops, but more than anything it's a waste of water. Most of the water will evaporate off of the leaves and stems instead of making it to the soil.
A better solution is watering at the base, which we achieve using Hoselink’s Long-reach Shower Spray Wand.
We've been using Hoselink products at Epic Gardening for 4+ years now and they're incredible. Shop easy watering at www.hoselink.com.
