Howdy, Prairie Plantgirl and handsome Buster!👋 Thanks for the compost lesson.😃 I can't turn a pile anymore; however, I get some pretty nice compost I make in trash bins...no turning...about 4 or 5 months...just food scraps, cardboard, and brown leaves.🍂 I do enjoy your compost videos!👍💕
I'm ahead of most 6a as I start seedings 8 weeks ahead of our mid May freeze date. I've a few Black Krim about belt high most of my 14 black Krim has 1 inck tomatoes and 3 inches largest. Definitely my best start with seedings for 4th season.Brleive I'll be eating something about the last week of. June Thornburg Terracotta usually 5 days behind.. I'm mulching my beds in early fall and May at seedlings planting days. Wear a mask molds and fungus are in the mulch Thanks Lady
In my latter years I have allergies with working mulçh and compost so partly me but as you agreed mask helps everyone thanks for helping me gardening I've improved also trying winter squash as you advocate for replacement for pumpkin in my cookies hopefully wife will cook with more garden veggies.
I do a three bin system myself. I try to rotate each bin forward about every 3-4 weeks. I'm sure your compost breaks down much better with the heat that you get. Job well done.
you should try hotcompost bins but build one yourself i can’t send a picture of what i build but the speed of how they work even i was surprised and its like what you buy in the store
I started refilling the compost bin a couple weeks ago,but then the aspen seeds started falling like snow here and I was afraid to use my grass clippings in case the pile doesn’t get hot enough and I end up spreading little trees all over my garden beds.🫤🙇🏻♂️ but I really could use more compost 5his season
Thanks for the reminder. It's time to turn my compost pile too.

There’s nothing wrong with leaving the pile to slowly do its magic. It just takes a little longer here because of our cooler weather.
@@PrairiePlantgirl Our Texas heat comes on handy in making compost.☀️

Wearing a mask is likely a good idea 👍

Three bin is a great way to compost!

I bet if you really crafty you could make a spinning compost bin out of old skids and a round fence post thing
I had a homemade spinning compost bin. I didn’t like using it.

Tree seedlings can be a real pain.
