And its suposed to be quick. I did find a site about it http://www.livingsoil.co.uk/ but then real peoples experiences tend to be more useful I find. A caution: it's all very well to think "ooooh, a Japanese non-smelly composting method", but don't forget that climate plays a role -- and the hot, wet, near-tropical Japanese summer is a far cry from cloudy England. To say nothing of the question, what kind of food wastes are being composted? Also: I find that whenever some maven starts touting this or that wonderful ethnic food, composting method, interior decoration style, take your pick it turns out to be, if you will excuse the expression, a crock of shit. Usually the hoopla over these things proves to be nothing but a journalistic gimmick to sell more magazines or books. So go into this with your eyes open and your b.s. detectors set to "highly sensitive". I agree entirely with your whole post. Franz |
