What Type Of Composter Does Your Garden Need?
Composters come in all sizes and shapes. And by composters we're not talking about the uncontrollable pile of leaves and garden debris at the end of a garden. No, we mean a purpose built container built to accomplish the job efficiently.
The classic composter design is a static compost bin with a massive lid to make putting waste in it quicker and a massive door at the base of the drum to get the completed compost out after one or two months of composting. That sounds like it should be simple to find a good compost bin but it is a little more involved.
Keeping that noted check thru these requirements and see what you need for your garden.
Size is the basic requirement when looking for a composter.. A big garden or a large family will produce an exceedingly large amount of waste to be recycled with a composting bin. A one person household will produce a less and which has to reflect on the size of the composter they buy.
Material comes next. Traditional composters were made with wooden slats.in Some practical and hobby orientated folks are happy to use scrap wood and build their own single or double compost containers. Others want to buy a composter from a shop or online and select a material like recycled plastic or galvanised steel. A number of these still need assembly and this should be checked before purpose. The task of assembling a complicated bin shipped in flat pack with multiple parts can be miles worse than flatpack furniture. It is dependent on the design "some are easy to assemble and you are done in a minute or two!
The last basic choice is to tumble or not? A technique to speed up the composting process is to turn the composting bin upside down or revolve it. The composters designed to do that easily are made of a drum or barrel like a washer and as the drum turns the compost turns too and the waste gets masses of oxygen which is crucial to the composting process.
Those are the 3 simple questions to answer so that you can choose the best bin for your garden. The classic design is a static composting bin with a large lid to make putting waste in it less complicated and a large door at the base of the drum to get the completed compost out after a couple of months of composting.
