compost quantity
Do they collect "yard waste" from your neighborhood? You could go
around and steal/take a few "yard waste" bags with lawn clippings and such, it is completely legal and free. i In article , Jet Dove wrote: I have a small compost pile into which I pile garden cuttings, leaves and other vegetative waste material and a little manure from my few pigeons and hens. I end up with a nice little pile of compost each year but not nearly enough. I would like to buy ingredients to produce a much larger quantity of compost. I am considering buying a few bales of alfalfa and bags of steer or chicken manure for this purpose. I'm concerned that manure might contain a few unsavory ingredients(hormones,insecticides, etc.) Would appreciate any ideas regarding this or other possible easily acquired but uncontaminated material -Jet |
