WHAT IS “EM'' IN EM-1? EM is the abbreviation for Effective Microorganisms, a term coined in 1982 by agricultural scientist and university professor, Professor Dr. Teruo Higa. EM-1 is a multimixture composed of lactic acid and phototrophic organisms, yeast and ferment-active Catalysts that collectively create healthy natural vitamins, organic acids, minerals and various antioxidants.
HOW TO USE EM-1 COMPOST ACTIVATOR. Using a watering can or sprayer, add 3 tablespoons of EM-1 Compost Activator to 1 gallon of water for every cubic foot of compost material. Apply as needed.
