Cara Membuat Pupuk Organik Cair (POC) dari Sampah Dapur dengan EM4 || Kakpit

Summary

In this video, the creator demonstrates how to make liquid organic fertilizer using four key ingredients: kitchen waste, rice wash water (or regular water), EM4 decomposer bacteria, and molasses. The process involves mixing the ingredients, allowing them to ferment for at least a week, and then using the resulting nutrient-rich liquid as a plant fertilizer. The creator emphasizes the practicality of this method, highlighting its speed, odorlessness, and the benefits of using natural materials to support plant growth. This DIY approach helps create eco-friendly fertilizer to nourish plants while reducing waste.

Takeaways

• 😀 Organic liquid fertilizer can be made using four key ingredients: kitchen waste, rice wash water or regular water, decomposing bacteria (EM4), and molasses.
• 😀 The use of decomposing bacteria (EM4) accelerates the decomposition process and prevents odor.
• 😀 Molasses (made from sugar water) activates the decomposing bacteria to work more efficiently.
• 😀 The mixture is stored in a covered container to protect it from animals, rain, and direct sunlight.
• 😀 The decomposition process typically takes about a week, and the result is a nutrient-rich organic liquid fertilizer.
• 😀 The organic liquid fertilizer must be diluted before application to plants to avoid damage from being too concentrated.
• 😀 The organic liquid fertilizer can be further enhanced by adding solid compost or soil to the remaining fertilizer mixture.
• 😀 This method of creating liquid fertilizer is practical and allows for reuse of kitchen waste and by-products.
• 😀 The liquid fertilizer becomes rich in nutrients due to the breakdown of fruit and vegetable skins and other organic matter.
• 😀 The final product is used to nourish plants, promoting healthy growth and beneficial outcomes.
• 😀 This technique contributes to sustainable gardening and efficient waste management by recycling organic materials.

Q & A

What are the main ingredients used to make liquid organic fertilizer in the video?

The main ingredients are kitchen waste, rice washing water (or regular water), EM4 bacteria, and molasses made from 200ml water and 200g palm sugar.

Why is molasses included in the liquid organic fertilizer preparation?

Molasses helps activate the decomposing bacteria, making the decomposition process more efficient and optimizing the work of the bacteria.

How do you prepare molasses for the liquid organic fertilizer?

Molasses is prepared by mixing 200ml of water with 200g of palm sugar and then boiling the mixture before allowing it to cool.

What role does EM4 bacteria play in the liquid organic fertilizer?

EM4 bacteria are used to decompose the kitchen waste and speed up the breakdown process, ultimately creating the organic liquid fertilizer.

How is the liquid organic fertilizer made?

To make the fertilizer, you mix the EM4 bacteria with the prepared molasses solution, then add it to the kitchen waste. This mixture is kept in a covered container to avoid contamination and exposed to indirect sunlight.

What type of container is recommended for fermenting the liquid organic fertilizer?

It is recommended to use a covered container to prevent animals from entering and to protect the mixture from rain and direct sunlight.

How long does it take for the liquid organic fertilizer to ferment?

The fertilizer needs to ferment for at least one week. However, the video shows an example of a two-week fermentation period.

What should you do if the liquid fertilizer is too concentrated?

If the liquid fertilizer is too concentrated, it should be diluted with water before applying it to plants to avoid harming them.

What can be done with the remaining solid material after using the liquid fertilizer?

The remaining solid material (the pulp) can be mixed with compost or solid fertilizer, or it can be combined with soil for further use.

How is the liquid organic fertilizer applied to plants?

The diluted liquid fertilizer is applied by watering the plants, ensuring that the nutrients from the fertilizer benefit the plants.
