    I live in The Bahamas,I absolutely enjoyed your presentation. I think it was very information and explained in laymen's simplicity!! I did a few composting workshops and in addition with this discourse I should do a bit better!! Thanks for the video.
    Edited: Love how she kept the science in the presentation without all the scientific terminologies 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

    I'm from Odessa Texas and I attended a Veggie Food Growers outfit back in the early 80'
    we were able to buy a nice wire compost unit that has a pleasant green coating for $7.99 each. I at the present still using it Now and It has a wire square center post that helps airate the compost. I grow many things here on my farm Fruit Trees, (Japanese Fuyu Persimmons)my favorite.
    All vegies we can eat. I also work with Grafting, Layering, and trying to learn all I can to grow whatever will keep me going. I own 11 acres here in East Texas am 78 years young and plan to stay that way.
    Thank you for the Great Info.

    I found this whole presentation incredibly valuable and even took screenshots of your PP slides for ongoing reference, which I hope you don't mind. I now have a large garden to look after where I live in mixed Sheltered Independent Living accommodation for the over 60s. It consists mainly of shrubs and lawn with a few perennials in borders, with lots of trees, and a large lawn. I am researching / establishing an appropriate composting system utilising all of the organic matter naturally available of both types (C & N) and some kitchen waste, mainly mine. I am vegan so not a lot gets wasted anyway, mainly fruit matter and some veg peelings. One or two of the other residents occasionally add their kitchen waste, none in large quantities. The only animal waste is eggshells, hardly any.
    I have been aware that I need to be mindful about how much compost I add to the garden based on plant type and soil composition so am very interested in studying / examining this to develop a practice that is only beneficial. Finding out how to compost, and understanding the science involved has been on my agenda for a while, too. So finding this presentation is giving me some confidence to get stuck in and start composting with better insight as to scale and methods.
    For all that, it only remains for me to say thank you so much. Kind regards.

    So I have heard adding non fully-cured compost could rob nitrogen from your soil if you mix it into your soil. I believe in no till, not to destroy soil structure, so you would add the compost as a top layer to your soils and let it leach in as it break down as a slow release fertilizer. I believe mother nature has been doing it that way for a long time and forests seem to be lush and healthy.

    I have been composting for my entire life. My grandparents composted, or they ate least buried scraps back into the garden.
    I will pick up a load of pony manure in a few days for my first manure compost.
    I started mushroom farming and composting whole oak logs. Mesh grow bags is a vermiculite system I made by throwing everything in a vinyl mesh bag. Best tomatoes I ever grew. But it is a high performance system that requires a lot of water and food to maintain and feed the worms.

    1:06:00 Our composting facility had a fire that lasted a few month in either their IVC or windrows.. That happened at c. 20k Tonnes (they were licenced and cleared for 50k Tonnes. It was advised to let it burn out to avoid ash release. Much of the waste they take is nitrogenous i.e. grass clippings and food waste from households and businesses from throughout the county c. 250k population, but I understand the fire was in wood chips which I guess comes in from arborists.

    I just built a 4 bay huge compost bin. It's almost done. I live on the beach in Ocean Shores WA on the coast in sand so I hugelkultured underneath (buried half rotted wood under it) to hold water and nutrients as sand leeches nutrients and water I hear. Going to do the same when I make the beds next. Then composting in all the space I got. I live 5 min from the beach and just got an Earthwise chipper shredder mulcher and it rocks! Gonna be taking my tarp material yard waste bags that fit in my pack basket and truck and going to the beach for seaweed. Then will mulch the rinsed seaweed and run thru the Earthwise.
    The lot next door sold and they cut down all the trees and scotch broom. Scotch broom is a nitrogen fixer but it leaches phosphorus. I am using the beautiful scotchbroom wood chips for the ground around the garden, but I was wondering can I use the scotchbroom wood chips in my compost? Will seaweed offset this phosphorus problem? Can I mulch on top my beds with it? It's everywhere, invasive, grows strait for the shredder. Just got a compost thermometer. Not sure where my ph meter went. Need to go on a lookabout for it.

  • @JoesWife1000

    Thank you very much. Very helpful! I had a pile cool off very quickly, which I thought was failure. However, after watching this, I realized that it may have been finished composting quickly because I had quite a lot of black soldier fly larvae in it. Do you think that may be why it stopped getting hot in less than 2 weeks?
    Also, how large should your chunks be? One website told me to not mulch leaves and put everything in in big pieces. I had 4 boxes of produce from the food pantry, and I chopped it large and layered it with unmulched large sycamore leaves. What a mess!! The leaves pancaked with the produce and we have a 30 gallon trash can (lots of holes for air and drainage) filled with anaerobic chunks of leaves and slime. We are dumping it out on a tarp to dry out and today I added a bit of shredded newspaper. Any other ideas? It is 20 degrees warmer than the soil, so something is happening.

    • @fortcollinsgov
      @fortcollinsgov  5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Sounds like an interesting experiment! Most composters will tell you never to put food scraps directly into the soil where plants are growing because the heat produced during decomposition can actually burn plant roots. We would recommend composting food scraps and then using the finished product as a soil amendment (about 10% of the total soil by volume). Thanks Mike!

      Hi Michael,
      The brown-green 3:1 ratio is a volume estimate and it’s not an exact science - composting is equal parts science and art! For much more detailed advice and troubleshooting ideas check out: www.fcgov.com/compost

      If I put equal parts fruit waste 35:1 and vegetable scraps 25:1 that would make 30:1 ? That's why I get so confused about the 3:1 ratio. It would need some really high nitrogen to balance it?

      @chiraagshah269 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@MatBat4305 the ratios you are referring to are the actual ratios of carbon to nitrogen in the fruits etc. In the lecture, 'carbon' means carbon rich, also known as 'brown' material.... these items have higher C:N ratios than fruits and vegetables.
      So in the lectures terms, you should use approximately 3:1 brown to green.
      Using your figures, I believe the ratio you would be looking for is about 50:1 Carbon to Nitrogen.
      In my experience, the system is forgiving enough (and easier) to just consider browns (twigs, paper, leaves etc) vs greens.

    1) wheat straw has CN ratio about 80:1 and if we keep these straw in land, the microbes will consume additional Nitrogen from soil itself. Hence soil will be undergoing through temporary deficiency in Nitrogen.
    2) This will affect the next season crop yield if it's not from legumes.
    3) Does this mean we should not decompose the wheat in land itself. Or we should collect it from land and use for some other purpose such as mulching or feeding the animals?
    4) if one want to decompose wheat straw in land without disturbing CN ratio, is there any way without adding urea? Or is there any organic way to provide nitrogen for microbes
    5) How microbes decide whether to take nitrogen from soil or from reside.
    Kindly advise.

      She was referring to using it in actually making compost. If the temp didn't reach what it needs to be to kill pathogens and you were to apply that on your home garden you may be exposing your vegetables to those pathogens and then eating them.
      Even if you are applying infected compost around your trees, I think it would be much safer to consume that versus something like lettuce or some other low growing vegetable that might have rainfall splashing that compost onto the leaves that you will eventually eat.

    A few things I would say is turning compost is a waste of time nutrients and mass!
    And having the compost open to rain will wash away a lot of nutrients and if it rains a lot it can kill the heating reaction!
    And in my experience Of just adding anything and just keeping the moisture content right is the most important thing, I don't really bother with carbon nitrogen ratios or temperature as it is a continuous pile and I take the finished compost from the bottom!

    Why is it ok to use cow, chicken and horse manure but not dog?

      Marcia W it has to do with vegetarian animals digestion and diseases. You can bury your dog waste in your yard. Just not too close to surface or close to young trees and plants.

      dog manures and all other pet manures as well as all manures from carnivores should not be added to compost. This is because they feed on meats, fish and dairy products. these products tend to contaminate the compost since they attract pathogens and are way more difficult to compost when compared with manures from herbivores.
