Soil feels warm

Made a batch of very simple potting soil. Organic peat based potting mix and organic high quality worm castings and added 10% water to it and let it sit for 5 days now.

Just opened the lid and it feels roasting! Much warmer than the ambient room.

I guess this is a good thing right?

Maybe plant some tiny seeds let them sprout then kill them they will suck up some of the top layer and when you kill them they will rot slowly soo later in grow they will become available

That's where the term cooking the soil comes from. Let it cool down before you plant in it.
