EM-1 is Effective Microorganisms.  You can find it online.  I bought 1 liter but you only need a 1/4 cup to make a 25 lb batch.  Here is a site I just found on it.  http://www.bokashicomposting.com/
I have not see the whole site, but there is a lot of info out there.  Try YOUTUBE as well.  They show you how to make it.  You can buy it already made to.  Have fun learning :o)

Thank you!  I will check it out right now.  So, how is your garden growing?  The weather has been so crazy this year.  It has really affected us over here in Eastern Washington, and I have heard that Western is also getting odd weather.  We use to live in Everett, till 2007, now we have been over here for 3 years.  We really love the country and I must say we do not miss the Everett Traffic.  My kids were calling it "Little Seattle" when we left, because the traffic was getting so bad.

Your welcome.  As an update, I bought the EM-1 and the other items needed to make the Bokashi and it was so easy to make.  I'm now doing the compost in my buckets I made.  I think I have some tea started as well already.  Can't wait to try the compost tea on my flower pots.  They need it so bad. 
Another benefit from doing the Bokashi composting is that the fruit fly's do not like it,  and the rotten smell is not there.  Only  a ferment smell.  I love it :o)
