making a compost




MAKING A COMPOST



WHAT IS A COMPOST.
The compost its made of recycled garden and kitchen waste, and can also include paper products. It is used to feed and condition the soil and in making potting mixes.
Making compost is often considered to be complex but all you need to do is provide the right ingredients and let nature do the rest however, a little know-how will help you make better compost, more efficiently.


Compost Ingredients
kitchen garbage
soil
dry leaves
Grass cuttings
Tea bags and leaves, coffee grounds


MAKING A COMPOST
After collecting kitchen garbage like: banana and mango skin, salad, fruits, eggshell, etc.)    I put it all in a bucket for dirty laundry because it has holes in it which lets everything breath. The backyard is a perfekt place even thow it doesn't smell at all.

 I do step by step, this compost because it was something new for me, I never do a compost before, so I read about that, collected the materials and start de mission!!!.


For me, making compost is a way to help the planet and try to avoid the contamination, for this reason the compost is a way for people to do something simple, cheep and important in their homes.

I think that the idea of making compost with organic waste of our homes is very good, because with this project we don't throw away parts of the fruits or vegetables to the soil, or in the garbage car and that can help other plants to grow healthy and with all the nutrients. Also, organic compost is better for the plants because all the components it have are natural and it doesn't need chemicals.
