Compost Making Q&A

By letter2self on August 18, 2024



I answer questions such as the importance of heat, or not, whether sides need to be slatted, and what to do about rats. See amazing footage of a rat and stoat fighting, filmed by Edward. I had thought it was a weasel, thanks for your corrections.

Filmed and edited at Homeacres no dig garden on 29th November 2020, by Edward Dowding my son. Climate is zone 8 temperate oceanic – just five frosts this year, so far!

My earlier videos on making compost are:

1 in late winter, about starting a new heap https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kf6CGj7xpFE

2 in autumn, I explain successions of heaps, from currently being created to mature and ready https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TeBUX9iEFwg

3 in summer, how to prepare and balance the materials you add https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZtMsEylZvqw

In my online course 1, I explain and show about best ways to use compost as well as to make it https://charlesdowding.co.uk/product/online-course-1-no-dig-gardening/
We sell a package of two online courses at reduced price https://charlesdowding.co.uk/product/online-courses-1-and-2/
