Make leaf mold maybe suitable in the autumn, just collect the fallen leaves, and let them turn to be a leaf mold.

I have opted to let my council get my garden waste, they come and collect for free and make beautiful garden compost from my waste. I have however been thinking of making leaf mold, that takes about 2 years in my climate but doesn’t require any turning or special consideration, just collecting leaves and then leave it to process.HELENEhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16112289914239038835noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-256895036222786490.post-22015577581311289312014-01-23T15:42:42.685-08:002014-01-23T15:42:42.685-08:00You've reminded me that I have to turn my comp...You've reminded me that I have to turn my compost and see if there's any useable stuff at the bottom. I've got a beehive wooden compost bin - it aerates through the side panels so it never smells - but the snails get in and I can see slime trails all over the waste! I'm impressed by the amount of compost that you make and also like your terracotta composter in the top photo!Carohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11317388242574705433noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-256895036222786490.post-60232707856034056222014-01-23T04:27:31.681-08:002014-01-23T04:27:31.681-08:00I compost in the spring/summer months.

I will often add some manure to the compost as it adds bacteria to the mix and attracts insects that help it all break down.Sunnybrook Farmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18135224259672444423noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-256895036222786490.post-79411834753853603672014-01-23T00:00:53.363-08:002014-01-23T00:00:53.363-08:00I love the top photo of your compost bin, I have t...I love the top photo of your compost bin, I have three plastic compost bins but really want to change them for wooden bins that look like beehives. No time to do it last year but I do want it done this. Our local compost collects any cooked food waste too so that gets composted elsewhere.
