On the topic of compost, does anyone have a good suggestion as to how
to deal with a lot of grass cuttings? I'm told (& have seen) that if I
put too much grass on the compost heap I end up with a dark, soggy,
smelly mass. What is the best suggestion for diluting the grass?



one way is to dry the grass out before composting, I use empty onion sacks
from the local veg market. If it gets too dry use natural urea which adds
moisture and activates de-composition.
