hi everyone,

 

As I can only find bokashi online and the postage seems to double the cost I'm just wondering if it's worth continuing with it when I can get garlic powder from the local horse shops. From what I've read they both seem to do the same thing smell-wise, the only difference is that bokashi makes the poo firmer - but does that make that much difference?

I've been using the wiggly wigglers readymixed mash with bokashi which is good value etc but it seems to make Daffy sneeze (almost constantly!) so I'm going to go back to pellets and add stuff myself again, which is a pain but better than constant sneezes - it's just deciding what to add!

 

that's a bit waffly but basically do garlic and bokashi do the same job and is either better than the other?

 

ta,

 

jen

I read that you can put a clove of garlic in the drinking water but it didn't say how long it lasted for or how much water to put it in.

I've always used bokashi and garlic. Why don't you try them without bokashi for a few weeks and see if it does make a difference - then you can tell all of us .
