VEM

Vermicast is the end product of vermicomposting in which worms breakdown organic matter. If we make vermitea to multiply beneficial microorganisms present to vemicast, we usually needs aerator or brewer. Straight aeration for few days helps the microorganisms present in vermicast reproduce and become active. However, adding EM-1 no longer requires, additional aeration. The mixture of microbes of EM-1 will befriends the present microorganisms in vermicast and these microbes help each other in releasing the  nutrient, hormones and bio-active substance present in vermicast.


How to make VEM (EMpowered Vermitea)

♣ 20-25 kilos vermicast in a sack (Animal manure (except dog and cat) could also be use in replacement of Vermicast)

♣  5 kilos molasses

♣ 170-200 liters water

♣ 1 liter EM-1


Procedure:

1. Dilute 5 kilos of molasses to 170-200 liters of water.

2. Add 1 liter of EM-1 and mix well.

3. Soak the vermicast inside the drum and cover it tightly.

4. Ferment it for 1 week before using. Stir every 3 days to release the gas.
 
The good thing about EM-1 and vermitea is that you could mix and match and apply whatever is more suitable base from your farm condition and available materials. Here is one of the mix and match that’s proven effective in reducing the use of chemical fertilizers and at the same time repels insect pest.

  1. For Foliar application: Dilute 150 ml of VEM OR vermitea cocktail to16 liters of water. And spray it on lower and upper leaves of the plant once a week.
  2. For Drenching: Dilute 300-500 ml of VEM OR vermitea cocktail to 16 liters. Drench atleast 150 ml per plant.
 

FOR FRUITING VEGETABLES APPLICATION
 
  1. For Foliar application: Dilute 150 ml of VEM OR vermitea cocktail to 16 liters ofwater. And spray it on lower and upper leaves of the plant once a week for the first 6 weeks. And twice a week for succeeding weeks.
  2. For Drenching: Dilute 500 ml to 1 liter of VEM OR vermitea cocktail to 16 liters of water. Drench this at the rate of 150 ml per plant for the first 3 weeks. Apply 500 ml per plant once a week for the next 4 weeks and twice a week for succeeding weeks until fruiting.

    1. Good day. You can keep this for 1-3 months. Pero kung may matira ka pa kahit lampas na ok lang po pede parin gamitin.
