Best Composting Methods
Do Nothing: bury or mulch directly in garden, hedges and pocket forests
minimum CO2 off-gasing, simplest, least disturbing to soil if mulched
Worm Composting
handles almost anything + produces highest quality results
Johnson-Su Bio-Reactor
a very large worm composter with air chimneys for a year
produces extremely high quality soil amendments
produces large volumes for commercial farms
based on discovery that air travels no more than 1 foot thru organics
Eileen Ingham Hot Composting
when done correctly, makes finished compost in 18 days
requires turning over every 2 days
Feed chickens or pigs
Compost in place
large pile of leaves, woody debris, grass clippings for one year
poke a long piece of rebar every 1 foot square to aerate it regularly
cover with tarp and add nitrogen slurry regularly
