How to Use Your
FoodCycler™ Foodilizer™
FERTILIZE YOUR GARDEN
Mix your FoodCycler™ Foodilizer™ (the byproduct at the end of the cycle) into your soil in your garden or potted plants like a fertilizer! The minimum recommended ratio of by-product to soil is 1:10. If your by-product contains a lot of meat and/or dairy products, we recommend that you increase the ratio to 1:20. For absolute best results, we recommend mixing in your Foodilizer™ with the soil 4-6 weeks prior to planting seeds or transplanting plants. This will allow the by-product to break down and properly nourish the soil.
GIVE IT AWAY
Give your Foodilizer™ to those of your family and/or friends who garden or compost. You could also donate it to a local farmer, community garden or garden center to use as fertilizer.
ADD IT TO YOUR COMPOSTER
Mix your Foodilizer™ into your existing backyard composter – or give it to a
friend who composts!
Adding FoodCycler™ by-product will accelerate the composting process. We
recommend that you only add the by-product to non-tumbling composters.
We also recommend using the by-product as a “green” (or nitrogen) compost
element, incorporating the “brown” (or carbon) materials at the same ratio you
normally would with regular food scraps. Your carbon elements can be paper
products or dead leaves.
THROW IT AWAY
You can dispose of the by-product in the garbage.
Foodilizer™ is still exponentially reduced in volume and liquid mass, and will
contribute considerably less to waste landfill and associated emissions.
FAQ
