EM-5 Now Available through BuildASoil.com 

Formula EM-5 is a versatile tool in your garden and is typically home made. We realized that most gardeners needed Formula EM-5 when it was already too late for them to start brewing it all up and fermenting it. After we realized this we set out to create a product that would only include the very best ingredients and be shelf stable. Below we provide the recipe to make your own for free but have found that most people prefer to purchase our Pre-Made and Shelf stable version instead.

Ingredients in our Formula EM-5:

Purified Water, Organic EM-1, Organic Apple Juice Concentrate, Organic Grape Alcohol, Organic Yucca Extract, Organic Apple Cider Vinegar, Organic Peppermint Essential Oil. This is safe to spray on flowers when diluted and is best used throughout the growing season.

Formula (EM5) RECIPE for home made:

As always, we are giving you the recipe to make your own spectacular homemade plant wash. The fermentation extracts properties out of plant materials and the alcohol and retains them in the liquid. The EM1 in the recipe is the fermentation catalyst. This is an all-natural concoction that can be made by anyone and is not harmful to humans or animals. It combines water, EM1, a distilled spirit, molasses, and vinegar. The most successful programs with BAS Plant Wash involve alternating its applications with Activated EM1 and EMFPE. The essential oils that are the active ingredient in the BAS Plant Wash are exempt from EPA registration as a minimum risk pesticide.


The formula for one gallon of EM5 is as follows (1:1:1:1:20):

  1. 3/4 C EM1
  2. 3/4 C Molasses
  3. 3/4 C Vinegar (white or apple cider)
  4. 3/4 C distilled alcohol (vodka, whiskey, tequila)
  5. Add some other plant material (fresh hot peppers or garlic...or fresh herbs that have known pesticide properties like mint leaves, lavender, eucalyptus, mella luca, neem, etc.)
  6. Fill the gallon container with warm water (110-120ºF)
  7. Seal and ferment until pH goes below 4.0

Spray EM5 alternately with EM1 or Fermented Plant Extract through a hose-end sprayer.

Often people will set up an informal program as follows (Diluting the AEM1, EM5, or EM FPE with 500 parts water):

Week One: Apply AEM1, 1 gallon for 1/2 acre property
Week Two: Apply EM5, 1 gallon for 1/2 acre property
Week Three: Apply EM FPE, 1 gallon for 1/2 acre property
Week Four: Apply AEM1, 1 gallon for 1/2 acre property


This pattern is repeated throughout the growing season.

Directions:

Use 1 ounce per gallon for normal foliar spray use in container gardens.

Use up to 8 ounces per gallon for problems such as the growth of algae, odor-causing bacteria, and mold stains.

Use as general house hold cleaner for any purpose.

Glowing face with sun protection. No fuss, no muss!
Item Package Quantity: 1
Wow, I love this stuff. It does make your skin hydrated and glow with health while protecting it from the sun. No shiny oil, just glow, and best of all, no need to mess up your makeup reapplying sunscreen. You can use it to set your makeup for extra protection (I still use sunscreen under makeup). The mist comes out so fine and even, no drips or glob. The scent is light and fades quickly. The best I've dried out of all the other brands.

Lightweight and glowy
Item Package Quantity: 1
I’ve been using the Naked Sundays SPF 50 Hydrating Sunscreen, and it’s quickly become a staple — especially for long days outside and on the tennis court. The texture is lightweight and smooth, and it blends in beautifully without leaving a white cast or greasy feel. What I love most is the finish: it gives a natural, healthy glow without looking shiny or heavy. It layers really well under makeup and doesn’t pill, even when I’m reapplying throughout the day. I also appreciate how hydrating it feels without clogging pores or causing breakouts. Performance-wise, it holds up well during activity and sweating (which matters for me during matches). The packaging is easy to toss in a tennis bag for quick reapplication. If I had to note one thing, it’s slightly pricier than drugstore options — but the quality and wearability make it worth it. Best for: everyday wear, outdoor sports, and anyone wanting high SPF protection with a comfortable, skin-like finish. Would absolutely repurchase.

Stings! Waste of money! Doesn’t accept returns!
Item Package Quantity: 1
Very disappointed with this spray sunscreen. Although I’m usually not sensitive to sunscreens or face creams in general, this product made my eyes burn and tear up so much and so fast that I’m not able to use it. Such a waste. I even tried applying while covering just my eyes to avoid that area and it still stings. And it also goes on greasy, definitely not cute glowy looking. It is not a flattering shine. For the price I’m very disappointed and even upset that I didn’t notice before buying that you cannot return it. Don’t waste your money.

☀️ Holy Grail SPF Mist! especially for makeup days 💦
Item Package Quantity: 1, Item Package Quantity: 1
If you hate the feeling of greasy sunscreen but still want serious protection, this is the glow-up you’ve been waiting for. I use this as the last step in my morning skincare and as a top-up over makeup throughout the day. It’s lightweight, non-greasy, and gives a dewy finish without looking oily, just a fresh, hydrated glow ✨ The mist is fine and even (no big droplets or weird stickiness), and it dries down fast. No white cast, no clogged pores, no breakouts. Just SPF 50+ that actually works with your makeup instead of wrecking it. I’ve even used it midday at Disneyland and didn’t burn once, and I’m someone who burns if I think too hard about sunshine 🥵 Helpful hint: Shake it well before spraying, and hold it about 6 inches from your face for a nice even mist. One pass usually does the trick, but I like to go back over my nose and cheeks for extra protection ☁️ It also doubles as a midday makeup refresher, especially when your foundation starts looking a little dry 🧴 I brought this with me on a full weekend trip to Disneyland and it absolutely earned its spot in my park bag 🎒 I was in the sun all day, both days, and didn’t burn at all, even with minimal shade and back-to-back rides 🎢 It layered like a dream over makeup, didn’t feel heavy, and made touch-ups fast and easy in between churros. This mist officially passed the Disneyland test. 🎡☀️💕

Good but heavy smell
Item Package Quantity: 1
I will keep using this bc it works and the sprayer is sooo nice but the smell is so overwhelming. It’s not a bad smell but it’s just so heavy. I’ll use this one but I don’t see myself repurchasing.
