Default Compost Question


"Lucretian" wrote in message
...

Hi all,

I've got a compost bin and was wondering when I should stop adding to
it so that I can use well-rotted compost on my veg patch next Spring?

It's a plastic dalek-style compost bin, from the council.

Cheers

Lucretian

PS. See yous all at the Beanpole Festival, the Green Wood Centre,
Ironbridge, Shropshire - Sat 19 April, 11am-4pm - the launch of
National Beanpole Week -see www.greenwoodcentre.org.uk for more info.


I just fill one bin, then start filling the other. When I need compost, I shovel
the stuff off the top of the first bin into the second, until I get to good
compost. Then use it up, and repeat the process the other way.
