Palmist
What are the features of Palmist?
Palmist uses aerobic microorganisms to perform fermentation.
As its name implies, aerobic microorganisms are a type of microorganisms that require oxygen for their activities. Traditionally, people in farming communities have been making manure from straw and fallen leaves, and aerobic microorganisms have been used in this process. Palmist is a natural and environmentally friendly way of recycling food waste.
Is it different from EM bacteria?
EM bacteria use anaerobic microorganisms that do not need oxygen when they are active to make manure. For this reason, sealed plastic containers are used for EM bacteria to seal off from the air.
In contrast, the fermentation of Limits is aerobic, so fermentation proceeds about twice as fast as EM bacteria (closed bucket method). It is ideal for converting raw garbage into compost in as short a time as possible.
Product Accessories
What is the purpose of the included drawstring bag?
The drawstring bag is used for primary fermentation by throwing raw garbage into it, and it is put into an outer bag (tube shape bag). The double-layered non-woven cloth bag enhances the insect control effect. Two drawstring bags are included as accessories, so you can use them alternately to throw food waste into the bag every day.
What is the purpose of the included outer bag?
The outer bag (tube shape bag) serves as an insect net to prevent unpleasant insects from approaching the drawstring bag. They are made of non-woven fabric that prevents insects from entering but does not interfere with air flow, and have a zipper attached to the lid. In order to prevent insects from entering the bag, the zipper must be closed every time and the drawstring bag must be placed in the center of the bag to leave a space between the outer bag and the drawstring bag. If the outer bag and drawstring bag are close together, the effectiveness of the insect protection is reduced.
How to use
Where should I place it?
The Palmister Bag is made of non-woven polypropylene and has a water-repellent surface, but is not waterproof. It is not waterproof, but it should be placed under the eaves or under the roof of a parking lot in case of heavy rain.
Why do we have to put soil on the bottom or cover it?
It prevents extreme excess moisture and dryness. If you do not do this, the primary fermentation will not proceed smoothly. It may bother you to do, but please be sure to do it to get the primary fermentation to succeed.
Sprinkling palmist on the surface doesn't make much of a difference.
During the deposition, there is no significant change in appearance. Even after covering it with soil and starting to cure, there may not be any significant changes, but this is not an unusual thing. The curing period of 14 days in the summer and 20 days in the winter is strictly observed, and after the curing period is over, please immediately mix with the culture soil or field soil.
If the curing period exceeds, the accumulated raw garbage will disintegrate like sludge, and the fermentation status will become poor, resulting in decay. As a result, it will cause failure.
Primary Fermentation
What is primary fermentation?
Microbial growth is divided into four phases: the Induction Phase, Logarithmic Propagation Phase, Quiescent Phase, and Death Phase. Primary fermentation in this product is defined as the period from the induction phase to the initial phase of logarithmic growth. In other words, primary fermentation here means the preparation period for microorganisms to adhere to the accumulated food waste in an even manner and enable them to multiply rapidly. This period is carried out in the drawstring bag.
Are there any precautions to be taken when taking out the drawstring bag and starting the curing process?
As mentioned in the instructions, cover it with soil, water it with jowl and moisten it thoroughly as you would irrigate a planter at the start of curing.
What is this white, cottony, fungus-like substance that has grown on the surface?
It is not abnormal, but it is a sign that the microorganisms have started to multiply. Since this indicates good conditions, you should move on to secondary fermentation (mixing with soil), even if it is within the curing period described in the instructions.
Second Fermentation
What is secondary fermentation?
This product is defined as the period from the logarithmic growth period to the resting period. Specifically, the sediment that has undergone primary fermentation (curing in the drawstring) is mixed with soil and allowed to lie down for a certain period. After this period, we are ready to plant crops.
Is it possible to grow flowers using fertilizer obtained from the palmister?
Some flowers are very delicate. The composition and condition of the fertilizer obtained from this product varies depending on the conditions of use and should only be used in vegetable cultivation. Also, avoid excessive use in vegetable cultivation and follow the formula described in the instructions.
