Got a huge compost heap - mostly grass clipings from a paddock. Seems
reluctant to decompose despite being watered. The inside is still dry and
dusty and look more like straw.

Anything I can do to speed up the process? I've been adding leaves now that
we have loads falling.



There is no really polite way of putting this, but it involves drinking
lots (preferable alcohol -cider's good) and having a weak bladder and
good resistance to cold, oh and its really a job for the boys! I am sure
you can work the rest out :~)
