One man should be enough - in a compost sense I mean. Apply daily
(just
watch the double-entendres in that one!).



There doesn't seem to be an upper limit. Best and sweetest compost I
ever
made was in a mini-heap in a 2ft x 2ft x 2ft hole which took about half
the total daily output of two people


The problem I have with depositing it directly on the heap is that my
garden
is overlooked by a couple of neighbours!

Well, we didn't deposit directly. We used a bucket.


Why did you bother with a bucket, it is possible to put it on directly!
