"I can use organic waste from the kitchen to make compost?
We produce a lot of leftover food in our daily garbage. I was wondering if it could be used to make compost. I am looking for an easy, I have a small yard and thinking of planting some flowers. May it be useful. I'm totally a newbie in this field, and just looking for a convenient way to recycle my leftovers instead of throwing them away.
Make a compost pile work is a balancing act between the addition of 'brown' waste leaves green kitchen and yard trimmings to build a relationship carbon to nitrogen ratio of 30:1 Because you can never know the smell of real content and the temperature is the best indicator of activity level compost. If you smell sweet as the soil became proper operation. If it gets wet start to decompose anaerobically and produce hydrogen sulfide, the smell of rotten eggs. It is best to return it and get in. air should be moist throughout the lot, but never soggy. If the pile smells like ammonia, nitrogen has too much green material containing (Grass clippings, food scraps, green plant material) and not enough "brown" (dry leaves, paper, small pruning woody pine needles, dry plants, sawdust). Add more material 'brown' or shovel the ground and turn. If you sit and do nothing, without heat smell like much material 'brown' that contain carbon and / or is dry. We need more "green" kitchen waste or grass clippings weeds, coffee grounds, pruning seedmeal, soft green, algae, or animal manure (sheep, poultry, horse, rabbit and cow). Turn the pile damping of all dry areas until just damp and work in the fresh nitrogen "green" material rich. ingredients "includes Brown dry leaves, straw, hay, wood chips or newspaper chips, egg cartons, brown paper or a bit of land. http://www.compostguide.com/ C: N ratio ideal would you use a thermometer reads 0 degrees to 200 degrees F and is long enough to read well in the battery to determine when to turn the pile. If you have layers carbon to nitrogen to the ideal 30:1 for the battery starts to heat up shortly. There will be a steady increase in temperature for a day or two. Normally the battery will increasing to 120 to 149 degrees F, at which point you can stop rising. Keep the temperature control. If it stays up, fine. If you fall, turn again. Once it is not the temperature rises and after activation is complete. Keep in mind this is all based on being able to balance the carbon or "brown. nitrogen or "green." Also the size of the particles that matter is added. If possible all material should be run through a blender to mix and reduce the size. This spins much easier, too. The truth is a long-term compound produced humic acids just as good a battery faster. Meat and dairy compost meat and high-fat dairy products, therefore, are "brown." May cause an unpleasant odor if added to a passive pile or poorly managed compost pile active. For a hot, hair well turned compost, waste meat and dairy products are not a problem. However, it is best to run the waste through a blender or food processor to reduce its size and speed decomposition. Grease, oil and grease, known as FOG, have a high C / N (90:1). It must be balanced adequate amounts of nitrogen. What you should be added, feces or pet or human - carriers of diseases and parasites, as well as cause an unpleasant odor diseased garden plants - can infect the compost pile and influence the final product. Invasive weeds - Spores and seeds of invasive weeds (buttercups, the morning glory, quack grass) can survive the decomposition process and spread to the plants when you want to use the finished compost. glossy paper, color - The inks are toxic to soil microorganisms. plant material treated with pesticides - These are harmful to compost food chain organisms, and pesticides can survive in the final compost .. Eucalyptus leaves and bark - effects on nutrient cycling and prevents some allelopathic effects seed germination timber treated - not tear down. Poison Ivy - is a potent source of urushiol even after a year and a half (for those sensitive). Walnut shells - Juglone, a chemical naturally released by all parts of black walnut trees can be toxic in many vegetables and landscape plants. ------- Wood ashes - very alkaline (High pH), and high in potassium so it is good for sandy, acidic (low pH). However, the size of the fine particles of ash tends to clog pores of clay soils leads to problems with water seepage and drainage. These should be thought about before adding. Slugs and snails generally feed on living plant material, but will attack fresh garbage and plant debris and therefore will appear on the compost heap. (Better where you can find and kill them in the garden. We dump dead in the soapy water until after the compost.) During the early stages of the composting process, the flies provide ideal transport for bacteria in the air on its way the stack. Flies spend their larval phase in compost as worms, which do not survive at temperatures thermophilic bacteria and fungi creates digestion. Adult flies feed of organic vegetation. If flies become a problem of food waste coverage with a little garden soil. In compost piles to small-scale backyard soil invertebrates help the decomposition process. Along with bacteria, fungi and other microbes, these organisms are a complex food web or energy pyramid with consumers of primary, secondary and tertiary. The source base of the pyramid, energy, consists of organic matter as plant and animal waste on the stack. The compost should have many types of worms such as earthworms, nematodes, red worms and potworms. They invade the stack of the land or through the holes drain if you have a tray closed. In addition to the worms that we will see many other creatures such as sow bugs or springtails. All the creatures that move in are not because they like dead things. Errors, large and small, are what make the decomposition occurs.
