How to Use Cotton Straw to Ferment into a Matrix

Golden Baby Microbial Fermentability Bacteria is a natural compound fermentation bacterium first developed in China. The original strain was collected from the deep soil of mountain forests and has been enhanced through advanced techniques such as high-tech screening, purification, and rejuvenation. It integrates the essence of high-end microbiology engineering technology from Europe, America, Japan, and South Korea, developed by Seiko. Golden Baby Fermentation Aid is a complex microbial community composed of bacteria, filamentous fungi, yeasts, actinomycetes, and other beneficial microorganisms. These microbes have strong decomposition and digestion capabilities during the fermentation process. The various "functional microbes" do not antagonize each other; they work together and utilize the "biochemical reactions" that occur during the rapid growth of these functional microbes. The heat and metabolites generated during these reactions help complete the deodorization, decomposition, disinfection, sterilization, and nutrient conversion of organic materials. This leads to the "harmless" and "resource-based" treatment of livestock manure such as chicken, pig, and cattle/sheep dung, as well as waste materials like cotton straw, corn stalks, bark, fallen leaves, sawdust, and animal hair.

Fermenting Cotton Straw into a Matrix

First, preparation: cotton straw needs to be pre-treated. It should be crushed or cut into pieces of 2 cm or smaller, and turned into a fibrous form to make it easier for fermentation. One kilogram of Golden Baby cotton straw fermentation agent can handle 3-4 cubic meters of material.

Second, add nutrients: mix 2.5 kg of urea with 150-200 kg of water to create a urea solution, or use 250 kg of livestock manure to reduce costs. Evenly sprinkle this mixture over the straw and pile it into small heaps.

Third, inoculate the culture: after the urea has soaked in, cover the pile with a breathable material and let it sit for 24 hours. The next day, mix 1 kg of Golden Baby microbial fermentation agent with 5 kg of rice bran to create a bacterial mixture (this means 1 kg of starter is diluted into 6 kg of material, making it easier to spread and also providing nutrients for the bacteria). Spread this evenly over the pile so that it can be turned and mixed. This process is called "inoculation," where the microbial enrichment agent is combined with the other materials and scattered into the heap—this technique is known in microbial engineering as "inoculation."

Note: Fresh rice bran provides better nutrition and ventilation than old rice bran. If rice bran is unavailable, you can use wheat bran, corn flour, or similar alternatives.

Fourth, adjust moisture: the moisture level of the fermented pile should be between 60-70%. To check if the moisture is right, grab a handful of the material. If it leaves a watermark but doesn’t drip, it’s just right. Too little water will slow down fermentation and may lead to the growth of harmful bacteria, causing bad odors. Be careful with this step.

Fifth, cover and ventilate: after the inoculation is complete, cover the pile with a breathable material and place it in a shaded, rain-protected area. Normally, after the fermentation starts, the temperature can reach 55-60°C within 5-10 days. At this point, turn the pile once and repeat the turning process 2-3 times to complete the fermentation.

Sixth, maintain moisture: as the temperature rises and heat accumulates, the moisture in the material will evaporate. When turning the pile, add water as needed based on the condition of the material.

Through the practical experience of users across dozens of provinces including Beijing, Shanghai, Jilin, Zhejiang, Jiangxi, Hebei, Shanxi, and Shandong, it has been proven that using microbial fermentation agents and microbial engineering technologies can effectively ferment various types of bark, straw, and leaves. While livestock manure is easier and more reliable, the fermentation of bark, sawdust, and straw has always been a global challenge. Generic starters often struggle with these materials, but Golden Baby's biological starter offers an easy and efficient solution. This method is economically effective, producing an ideal matrix for flower seedlings and edible fungus, offering great economic and ecological benefits. It has gained widespread popularity and is being promoted on a large scale. Our products are now entering international markets such as the UK, USA, Australia, and Syria.
