Uh, no. And that's the misleading part of this video that the author admits he didn't create anything that resembles proper compost. In his own words, he created something that might be usable only as mulch for two reasons... First, that significant amounts of the pile did not decompose completely, and secondly his ingredients only contained mostly Nitrogen so the result is missing Potassium and Phosphate. Maybe the result could be used for a plant that requires only Nitrogen but wouldn't be a very good soil amendment for a wide variety of plants.

Most afforable plastic containers get brittle and break apart with exposure to the sun similar to plastic plant pots. Whereas most metals might break down with prolonged heat and water exposure/rust etc... Anyone have thoughts on this or alternatives that might still have that heat capture effect without those potential risk of contamination? Thanks for the video & any gardeners ideas on this ^_^

Your video popped up, and I had to see what you were up to. I'd like to mention that your first morning pee works great to kick start the composting. Comfrey is an excellent plant that can be turned into "tea" for the garden, chopped up and added to composting, or copped and dropped around plants. Just that simple. Dry Comfrey and add to olive oil, let sit for a month or two. I like the herbs steep in the summer sun and the moonlight. Stain, then add bees wax to make an excellent healing salve. I also grow and dry calendula to add with the Comfrey. Happy gardening 😉

Tonight I created a compost bin from 2` chicken wire around 4 post. Approximately 3`x4.5`. Looking forward to some rich compost next year! Bonus, I even got my daughter to help! 😊

Thanks for the tip about using molasses water. I'll give it a try on my compost pile, my tumbler, and the garden itself.

Hello and thank you so much for this video. I never knew that sugar accelerates the process! Can you tell me if each day, after turning the compost, do you use the sugary mix or fresh to water it daily? P.S. I also love how your beautiful little family is involved in the garden!

Hiya, it depends on how fast the pile is breaking down if it needs a push add more sugar, i did a follow up explaining some common questions kzbin.info/www/bejne/nHXXpXVqqriEo9U
