Complete guide start to finish on composting. This is the most basic and simple way to compost. In this video you will learn:
– Benefits of Compost on soil / plants
– What items you can compost
– What you shouldn’t compost
– How to build a compost pile
– How long it takes a compost pile to break down

I don’t overcomplicate anything here. It is just what to do and how to do it. I’ve been composting for about 5 years, and make 4-6 large piles every year.

*NOTE* – I didn’t think I needed to say this in the video, but any sawdust you use should come only from unfinished, air-dried or kiln-dried wood. Do not use sawdust from plywood, mdf, osb, particle board….etc. Only natural wood!

  1. I watched your video a few days ago! Every time I started a compost pile it never, I mean never heated up. I tired to heat up my compost pile more times that I care to admit or count. I follow your method step by step and HOLY COW for the first time EVER MY PILE IS HOT. I am so thankful to you! A MILLÓN THANKS. I have a hot compost. So happy 😁 temperature 110 after just one day!!!

  2. My dad started a grass pile in the corner where the sun shines aswell. We haven’t turned it.. but when we scratch it open for some compost. The worms that comes out there! We definitely stir it around in the wheelbarrow to let it break down more and then use it on everything here!
    I have a lot of succulents and they love it. We fill up gardens with it.
