Leave about 5% of your finished compost in your bin to inoculate the next batch, makes it faster
Oh nice ! Thanks for sharing this with us. I appreciate it.. happy gardening 🌱
Yes I LOVE my compost tumbler.. I grind up my egg shells before I add it to my compost. Great “Pro Tip” as always. Be Blessed and Stay WARM👈🏾😊
Thank you so much.. I always appreciate and love your comments... Have a wonderful blessed week 🙏🏾🌱
Where you grind your eggs shells?
U have helped me so much!!!😂😂😂not even the instructions from the company helped me this way. Thank you so very much!!!
I am glad to hear that .. I appreciate the good feedback... Have an awesome day 🌱
Thanks, I am now chopping before I compost. I started using a wood mortar and pestle to grind my eggshells. Thanks for your help!
Nice that's the way .. your welcome and have a blessed day 🌱
I still don't understand the time side versus the plus side. If I'm throwing out scraps everyday at what point does the plus side become the time side? Like I've watched four videos on this exact Tumblr and I just don't understand the concept when do I have to stop adding stuff to the tumbler? I just don't get it
Sorry..I would say when you start adding new kitchen scraps to the plus side ( stop adding anything after 2 weeks ) cuz those kitchen scraps in there will start to decompose .. move them to the other side... ( clock) If you have finish compost empty in a bucket or container .. or even if it's close to finish still empty it out
I just do it til it full with a progressive compost then swap and wait. When the next batch is full I empty the other side, leave about 5% and start a new batch.
Excellent vid on using a compost tumbler. Our school has had one for years, but not using it correctly. This make so much sense, and will provide "useful" compost for the school's plants and flowers. Thank you!
Glad it was helpful! And your welcome...
Have a wonderful weekend 🌱
Thank you for the straight forward explanation of how to use the barrel composter. I just bought one and really helped me feel confident about how to do this! Yay! You are fantastic!
Your welcome and thank you So much for your positive feedback.. I really appreciate it.. and Have to say one of the best thing you could do is to make home compost and it's so powerful for your plants.. have a wonderful blessed day 🌱
eggshell tip: collect them in a jar in your fridge, then dehydrate them in the oven. Will prevent the shell from sticking to and ruining your blender or food processer
Awesome..your right on that... Thanks for sharing with us . I appreciate it.. happy gardening 🌱
Thank you from another LI gardener!!!
Your welcome... Have a wonderful week ahead 🌱
Great tips! I’ve been thinking of getting one. You convinced me!
Thank you ! And yes !! You will not regret it.. compost is the best for the plants 🌱
Great video on how to use the composter! I just finished putting my composter together and I don’t know how to use it lol. Thanks for the info!
Glad it was helpful! One of the best things you could do trust me... It's very powerful for the garden and and the environment...
Your welcome and you got this ! Happy gardening 🌱
Thanks for the great review. Very helpful. I'm going to invest in a compost tumbler.
Glad it was helpful! Thank you 🌱
I grind my eggshells up in an old coffee grinder. My worms love it and I’m going to start adding them to my outside tumbler composter too
That sounds good ...I love it..thank you for sharing this... Happy gardening 🌱
Thanks for video! I own one but stopped using. Now I’m inspired!
Welcome and nice ! I am glad to hear that...
Home compost is very powerful for our plants 🌱
Excellent Explanation!
Thank you, sir
You're welcome..and thank you 🙏🏾
What happens in winter and you’re not planting? Do you save the compost and how?
Yep, I still compost even in the winter time.. You could also bring the compost tumbler in your garage...
If the compost is frozen it the enzyme is still alive. When it's unfrozen, just keep mixing it. It's going to be all good
This is a great class GreenT. I have city water so I use filtered water for cooking. Then I add water to kitchen scraps I keep in kitchen. Water from boiled eggs, steamed and boiled veggies. Your sky is beautiful. Mine was this morning but now it's not. I sub to MWP. I'm expecting more rain and wind. Be safe and blessed.
Wow nice.. that's amazing... Thanks for sharing that with us..
And thank you , the weather was cold but good day , this weekend might be like yours lots of wind and rain... Have a wonderful and blessed week ahead my friend 🌱
Your video is the best! Thank you!
Please tell me if this is right for starting the process:
1) put chopped up GREENS into PLUS SIDE.
2) Add the BROWNS (double amount). Add water.
3) turn the tumbler 5 times.
CONTINUE ADDING TO THIS SIDE FOR 2 weeks.
4) after 2 weeks, switch slider so contents are to the MINUS SIDE.
5). Start step 1 again.
6) use compost in MINUS SIDE when ready.
Is this correct? Thank you.
Also, is it ok to add soiled table napkins?
Any additional tips welcome. Thank you!
Yes and yes...
You got this ! Time to make compost...
Most powerful Fertilizer ever for your plants
@@Greentgardenthanks a million! Your video gave me the confidence to start.
Your welcome...thank you have a wonderful week ahead 🌱
Awesome video!
Thank you 🌱
Great explanation!
Thank you 🌱
Thank you, this was a very informative video. If I can ask, when do I fill the barrel up to have compost ready for spring?
Your welcome and I would say 2 months before to be safe ..
Excellent explanation. Thank you.
Do you throw in those green compostable bags in the tumbler?
I used to but some of them takes a while to break down. Cut it up small pieces before putting in
I was about to sell
Mine because it didn’t work. I will follow your instructions and give it another try. Thanks.
Your welcome and go for it.. you got this.. compost is amazing in the garden
Great video. Thanks
You're welcome 🌱
Great review.
Thank you 🌱
Greeting. Thanks for your video. I have started composting 2 months ago using similar tumbler. I have one problem which is I got them round like small ball even I cut them small. Unfortunately this will reduce aeration efficiency. Any idea why I am getting them.
Means your compost have to get mixed more , keep turning it more often.. Make sure it's not too wet or too dry. Just keep it a little bit moist.. happy gardening 🌱
Mix some old soil inside to loosen up the compost in there... That sounds help
Thanks
Welcome.. happy gardening 🌱
I don't worry about the egg shells. Just toss them in. They get all smashed up when you tumble. May take longer to break down but still good compost.
Nice.. sounds good to me...
Thanks for sharing with us .. happy gardening 🌱
I’ve noticed a lot of fruit flies coming from my compost, is that ok? Or am I doing something wrong?
It's normal sometimes... Add some lemon or orange peels also mix it more often should be good
Thanks.
Welcome.. happy gardening 🌱
Nice
Thank you
I made our faimly 3-45 gallon old oil drums (clean) figure we could fill one 1/2 full then move onto the next one by time summer comes (6 months of winter) we would have good soil few times a year
Oh that is awesome... Sorry about the long winter but doing home compost is the best.. thanks for sharing this with us
What if I live in acold area doe's the compost work?
Yes, compost can break down in colder temperature. It just takes a little bit longer time but it Will decompose...
Does this attract flies and maggots?
It all depends what you're adding inside and how often you're mixing..
If you keep it a little bit moist and mix it well, you won't have any problems.... If you have any flies you could add a some orange peel that will take care of it
Oh great idea!!! Thank you!!!!
Your welcome.. happy gardening 🌱
So, how much water do you add and when ? And when do you tumble it ? I’m very new to this;
Light water , Just so it's moist a bit and spin the Tumblr every 2 to 3 days... Spin it slowly about 20 times around ..
@@Greentgarden K, thanks for responding; it’s my first time ; )
Your welcome and nice.. home compost is very powerful in the garden... I ran out and making more.. Make sure to cut up everything into smaller piece if you want it faster compost
I had my first garden this year (enormous failure) but I learned a loT! I was using a 5 gallon bucket and throwing my cooking veg scraps in there. It was full of maggots and gross, so I just bought one of these! Excited! Thanks for the knowledge 🙏
Thank you so much for these tips. Does a compost tumbler get the contents to a high enough temperature (130 - 150 F) to kill weed seeds and insect eggs/larvae? Or should it be used exclusively for kitchen waste and cardboard - type paper, to avoid incubating unwanted organisms?
If you have a high temperature I would definitely stick with kitchen scrap and cardboard stuff browns.. cuz summertime I do try to keep it in a cool shaded area cuz the sun does get hot....
❤❤
🙏🏾🌱
Can i add grass clipping and shredded paper?
Yes to both , I would leave the fresh grass clippings Outdoor in the corner for a 1-2 weeks before putting in compost , cause it release a lot of heat... Dry grass is perfect to add in compost tumbler...
Don't add worms. They will die from the heat lol.
Lol good call 😁
You must be a politician. It took 7 minutes to say what could have been said in 2 minutes.
Lol And here I was thinking I'm doing this fast 😂 thanks for the feedback..I appreciate it.. have a wonderful weekend 🌱
@Greentgarden I am totally new to this, so I'm so glad you explained it so well
Good Evening GreenT... your probably asleep... but can cardboard be added to compost?? ❤️⚘️🪴
Yes .. cut into smaller pieces.... Have a wonderful weekend 🌱
