Compost Making, balancing green & brown or nitrogen & carbon

Описание: Make better compost when you understand how to balance the ingredients of your heap. Have fun trying different combinations, with more success once you know the qualities of each material.
Summer sees plenty of green matter and I show the ways to balance this with brown additions to your heap. 'Green and brown' are simpler ways to understand the best balance of nitrogen to carbon.
Success also comes from keeping air in a heap, helped by structure from woody additions. And from finding more materials to add, including some you thought you could not.

This video filmed at Homeacres UK on 11th June 2020 by Edward Dowding, then edited by him. He spends a lot of time editing, to make the explanations clearer and your experience more enjoyable. We hope you enjoy the result.
