Compost

Today the garden to table group and made some compost. We are making a hot compost. We are going to weight the compost every week and see the changes in the weight. I think that weight is going to stay the same and when I did some reach I found that I was right.
  • Hot compost takes 18 days. First you build a compost heap, then leave it for 4 days – no turning and then turn every 2nd day for 14 days. It is really interesting because unlike a cold compost the volume  of the hot compost stays the same.
