Food waste ends here. Use Food Scraps to Feed the Earth. Feed 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. Add it to Your Compost 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. Give it to Others 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. Should I Throw it Away? Keep it green. You can dispose of the by-product in the green bin; but we don’t recommend throwing it in the regular garbage that ends up in the landfill.
