Composting Update


It is almost 6 months since we started composting at home and it seems to have stuck and become part of a regular routine Though we haven't yet used the compost yet, the recycling is going on. The leave-it-pot is almost full, but the level keeps going down when more thing gets further composted. Except for nasty smell in between that you have to get used to, it has been pretty smooth sailing after the initial bumps. We did think of stopping it for a while when the spirit was pretty low, but finally kept doing it. May be we need one more leave-it-pot(or some container) to make the composting easier. Now old and new waste gets mixed up in the leave-it-pot which makes it difficult to get some compost out. If you have two of them, you could let one compost completely before dumping new stuff.

Overall, well worth doing it, not very difficult to make it a habit, surely worth a try!
