I should be very, very surprised if any home-gardener in the UK could
make compost in two weeks from start to finish.

Howard's Indore compost was made on an agricultural scale in India's
tropical climate. His system started with a heap 30 ft long and 14 ft
wide which was turned three times; the timescale was three months from
start to finished product.
