Hi

I found that using a black plastic compost bin worked wonders without
almost any input from me, apart from trying to add variety to the
mixture, ie layers of wet and dry and the occasional watering in dry
weather. I even put in thick chopped branches and lots of other hard
woody stuff like that, and we were amazed when 2 years later we lifted
the bin (we were moving house and clearing garden items) and there was a
wonderful perfect pile of dark fine compost - incredible! Then we were
rather disappointed that we couldn't use it!!
