Summary

This video introduces viewers to the benefits of turning organic kitchen waste into eco-enzyme, a fermented liquid made from fruit and vegetable scraps, water, and sugar. Developed to combat global warming, eco-enzyme has numerous uses, such as a cleaning agent, liquid fertilizer, and natural pesticide. The video also provides a step-by-step guide to making eco-enzyme at home, detailing the fermentation process, which takes 3-6 months depending on the climate. Eco-enzyme is eco-friendly, cost-effective, and easy to make, encouraging viewers to try it themselves.

Takeaways

• 🌱 Many people do not take full advantage of kitchen waste beyond making compost, even though it has many potential uses.
• 🧪 Eco-enzyme is a liquid produced from the fermentation of kitchen waste, mainly fruit and vegetable scraps, along with water and sugar.
• 🌍 Eco-enzyme was first introduced by Dr. Rosukon Poompanvong in Thailand to help reduce global warming.
• 🧼 Eco-enzyme can be used as a cleaning solution for clothes, household furniture, carpets, floors, toilets, and even fruits and vegetables.
• 🌿 It can also be used as a liquid fertilizer by spraying diluted eco-enzyme around plant soil.
• 🐜 Eco-enzyme is effective for pest control, helping to repel pests like cockroaches, ants, flies, mosquitoes, and other insects.
• 🍎 To make eco-enzyme, you need a plastic bottle, water, sugar, and organic kitchen waste like fruit peels or vegetable scraps, using a 10:1:3 ratio.
• 🧴 Fermentation takes 3 months in tropical climates and 6 months in subtropical climates, with regular stirring and venting during the first month.
• 🪱 If worms appear during fermentation, more sugar can be added to balance the process.
• ♻️ Once ready, eco-enzyme can be filtered and used, while the residue can be reused with fresh kitchen waste.
