I turn my compost about once a week. I use a pitch fork to sort of
fluff it (like a salad). And if it's dry a little water should help get
things cooking. It wants oxygen and moisture. I toss in peanut shells
and I still find a few shells uncooked at the end of the process too.
Just toss them back in for another round.
I think it's just the roots of walnuts that inhibit other plants. And I
agree, it's only a few handfulls..
Good luck
