Compost
This weekend I sieved through the contents of one of my compost bins and
gained a huge quantity of the most glorious crumbly compost. I am so smug, it's painful! I have three other bins which are ready, so I'm going to be impossible to live with this week :~)). The bins are simply ex-dustbins, upended or well-holed. I put in a good variety of materials, mix them (but not *that* often) and add water only rarely if the contents seem dry. They are cold heaps, although they get quite hot in summer, so they've taken about 9 months to produce this really splendid stuff. I just need some rain now, so I can spread it as mulch. Might just as well let the worms finish the job :~) Spider |
