If you're stuck at home, it might feel like you've been doing a lot more cooking. Here are some tips for how to compost food waste — whether you live in a suburban home or a tiny apartment 👇
In the world of composting you're inevitably gonna hear about"the greens and browns" — the two main ingredients for your mix.
A good thing to remember is that green materials are typically wet, and brown materials are typically dry. When you're layering, you want the dry browns on the bottom with the wet greens on the top. And it really is layering — browns then greens, browns then greens. The number of layers depends on your space and your amount of food scraps, but try to keep the layers to an inch or two. You can also put a little bit of browns on the very top to keep away flies and odors.
As for how much you turn it, you'll probably turn it less if you have the right ratio of greens to browns. Diggs says when you start out you might be turning the compost once every seven to 10 days.Neal says in the end"the nose knows" when your compost is ready."Bad compost smells, well, bad," he says,"It's like what a smelly trash can or dumpster smells like ... Basically, it smells like a landfill.
