Spent hours making that thing. even had an aeration tube down the center and all. Put all the clippings in it, rotated it regularly.. and after an entire year, I had stinky mushy clippings... <br /><br />Then I did the metal can in the ground with holes for worms to go in and out.. tossed in the kitchen scraps for a few months and then let it sit for a year.... ended up with stinky mushy kitchen scraps! <br /><br />guess composting is not my specialty :(TMMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03419395494440441249noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4858350933853662775.post-4957675070310140632013-03-05T05:54:16.129-06:002013-03-05T05:54:16.129-06:00i've been doing composting for a little while....i've been doing composting for a little while. stuff would look great, but would kill any plant. friend told me theres too much green matter, not enough woody material. suggested i add newspaper. this works great. after you add something to the pile, put some newspaper on top. end result is compost the plants can use.- rush2112Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4858350933853662775.post-91122310060092700392013-03-04T19:18:05.969-06:002013-03-04T19:18:05.969-06:00I just started composting last year so am looking ...I just started composting last year so am looking forward to learning more as I go.

I thin...My composting experiences just plain suck!<br /><br />I think that I've tried every way to make compost, piles, compost bin and even purchased some handy dandy compost tumblers that were supposed to make compost out of the grass clippings in 5 days! Not so!. At didn't do s@#t to the clippings!<br /><br />Argh!<br /><br />So, if this book could give me some help in the compost making world.....I need it.<br /><br />Bob<br />IIIidahobobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12857771751176894988noreply@blogger.com
