Review: Very effective soil inoculant - EM-1 is is a great choice for a plant soil inoculant, especially if you are growing organically. It adds a lot of life to your soil. I use it on all of my houseplants, veggies, herbs etc. You will notice a difference within a few days if not sooner after you first apply it. Plants are visibly more healthy and more responsive to light. EM-1 will help your plants use fertilizer more efficiently and it also helps with water retention in the soil. I apply it by itself @ 2tsp. per gallon of water between feedings, about once per month. There is not really any reason to use it more often than that. EM-1 is not only LABS but also contains photosynthetic bacteria and yeast culture. It also contains molasses, which helps to feed the bacteria in the soil as well as add sugar to your plants. It is a very effective probiotic soil inoculant that has many other uses as well. You can also use this with salt based nutrients as well to get some life into the soil. You can also dilute it for use with a sprayer and hose for use on your garden or lawn. EM-1 also helps with seed germination and rooting plant cuttings, clones etc.
Review: Good product - I was having a difficult time with end rot on my zucchini and tomatoes in one of my garden area. I used this and it really did help a lot with fixing the problem,

## Questions & Answers

**Q: So...if im spraying my lawn to rid it of dog urine smell, should i use a pressure sprayer or a hose end sprayer?**
A: You could use either. But a pressure sprayer would be more economical with less waste unless your hose end sprayer is reliable in it's measurement and disbursement of the product.

**Q: Can you do a foliar feed like neptune's tomato and veg at the same time you spray em-1?**
A: Yes you can!

**Q: How long do the bacterias live? I see some chunks of thin jelly-papers when I pour this - does this mean that the product is no longer effective?**
A: That “jelly” like substance is akin to a SCOBY, like when making kombucha. Should still be good

**Q: I purchased this product to help plants. Can I spray the diluted liquid on the leaves of plants, or does it have to be applied to their roots?**
A: When applying to leaf surface as a foliar, it is best wait until evening or early morning.   Do not spray the diluted EM-1 directly on the fruit/vegetable or flowers.  You can always spray your garden and then follow with a good watering to make sure none of the diluted EM-1 remains on the flower or fruit/vegetable if that is easier than trying to simply spray at the base of the plant.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This product is amazing.
*by C***E on November 12, 2023*

Make sure you activate the em1 instead of using it directly from the bottle. You can find instructions on how to activate it on traffic their website. It's extremely easy to activate it, all you need is molasses and some time. I originally bought this for my plants, which it was worked wonderfully for. Plants are perkier, and I can use less fertilizer. After reading more about EM I decided to try it out in a few more areas. My chicken coop was starting to smell a little off, so I decided to put some of the em1 in a pump sprayer and spray the bedding area with it. After about two weeks the smell is noticably improving. My bathtub drain started turning a smell, and I tried using boiling water, being stuffs and vinegar but the smell came right back the next day. I poured a few caps full in the drain and let it sit overnight and the smell was gone after a few days. I'm sure I'll find more use for this product over time, but what I've used it for so far, it's worth the price for me.
