Planning on building a bin here soon, too. Rrog, your thread has been an invaluable source of info, brother. Keep up the killer work. You too, Rising Moon!
I just take lots of notes and have a big mouth, is all. You guys would all grow circles around me. Guarantee it. I sure appreciate the kindness, though!
Spicy- Landfills OMG. Gold waiting to turn black. Lots of places have community composting, now. That's pretty freaking cool. Also your local power companies and tree services. That tree chipping can be turned to black gold by using... mushrooms. They eat that shit no prob. And the mushrooms are delicious and very nutritious. This particular mushroom is from Fungi Perfecti. http://www.fungi.com/ Paul Stamets should get the Peace Prize, man.
Thanks for response as always. I'm really interested in the amendment feeding. Are you saying I can feed my wormies ALL my amendments and not add any to the rest of the SS mix?Yes, and it is much preferred that you feed the amendments to the worms, not the soil. This way, any hot N and other nutrients are all broken down and locked up in the humus and organic matter. No harm at all to the plant.
