A More Sustainable Adventure

Compost Pile Has Become Too Wet

By letter2self on November 19, 2024



This Q&A is pulled from a collection of questions posed to me by students of my Online Permaculture Design Course (PDC). Learn more with my free four-part Masterclass series, here:

Question:

When discussing 18-day​ compost Geoff emphasized ideal moisture levels but I don’t remember hearing it mentioned how to deal with a pile that gets too wet? What’s the best way to deal with excess moisture and how do I prevent excess moisture in the compost pile from becoming a problem, to begin with?

About Permaculture:

Permaculture (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permaculture) integrates land, resources, people and the environment through mutually beneficial synergies – imitating the no waste, closed-loop systems seen in diverse natural systems. Permaculture applies holistic solutions that are applicable in rural and urban contexts and at any scale. It is a multidisciplinary toolbox including agriculture, water harvesting and hydrology, energy, natural building, forestry, waste management, animal systems, aquaculture, appropriate technology, economics, and community development.
