Trench 8" down, toss in kitchen waste, chop, add water and cover. Easy! |
I've been on the hunt for a spoiled produce source to bump my nitrogen levels in my compost and also realized the same source could serve as a trench composting source. After stopping by Produce World only to have the manager and his crappy attitude tell me "Yeah, other people have asked for spoiled produce but we don't keep it separate from the glass and other trash." "Are you willing to separate it if I supply you a container?" "No, I don't want to" Next stop was TJ's and the manager informed me that some food kitchen or something comes by and grabs their stuff. Hmpphh!... well fine!
I did two trenches side by side, this one a bit more shallow to test if it matters. |
I'll dig up a section in about a month or so and see what it looks like. Pineapple tops are pretty tough and probably not the best to test with but oh well, Tomorrow I should have a tub full of watermelon, cantaloupe, etc. to test with in another trench.
