Have you read the Humanure Handbook? It has good information on composting. Combining everything together (kitchen extras and garden scraps) you might get some additional moisture from the food and nitrogen from it too. I think one of the problems is you have all carbon. Also you live in Australia and from what I hear it’s dry. I think below 20 inches rain annually there’s not enough moisture to sustain compost.
the rail ties are NOT a good idea to have around the compost bin either. They have tar and other toxins in them that can seep into the compost, which if it is planed to be used in a veggie or fruit garden, those toxins could make it in to things that you intend to eat. Not good! If they were used because they would not breakdown, a better option would be lumber that is naturally rot resistant such as cedar or redwood.
I love your videos! Very informative, thank you very much!
thanks Michael, that would be awesome! thanks for the comments!
You are really an inspiration. I have been following your videos for a long time and am quite impressed. I am pushing to have one of the Morning Shows here in the States do a feature on you. Thanks for all of the GREAT videos.
Like your accent. You sound knowledgeable. Too repetitive though. I will check out more of your videos.
I like the moustache.
Thanks for posting.
