I need more...

compost for my garden, my one dalek hasn't produced anywhere near enough :rolleyes: and my 2nd bin hasn't been delivered yet
The stuff it has produced is lovely, so I must be doing something right... :rolleyes:

Is there any way I can speed the process up????

 

Windy get a compost tumbler it's supposed to produce compost a lot quicker

I use an accelerator to speed things up, from b and q , about a fiver for a 5kg box. Just sprinkle some on to every layer you add!

 

Also I think if you place it in a bit of sun, especially with them being black they don't half heat up. The hotter they get the faster the process. So long as you don't bake the little worms etc. I seem to get a lot of wood lice in mine, but there again suppose I dispose of a lot of wood chippings hedge clippings and prunings.

 

Put some worms in there to help break it down faster, tiger worms are best & can be bought online from www.wigglywigglers.co.uk

 

Urine is a great accelerant for home composting !

 

Yes Oktarine, I believe the gardeners on the large estates used to urinate in the rainwater tubs to help the garden. Don't know whether the gentry knew though!
