Title: compost bin
Post by: iain on May 01, 2007, 13:52:29
I know this question has been asked lot's of times b4, but I have just bought a new compost bin, what is the best thing to go in the compost bin. I read somewhere that nettles are good,  Shredded paper, grass. where the ground has been covered with carpet and plastic sheeting the greenery has dried nicley, could that go  in the heap.

Is it worth buying worms (from a fishing tackle shop) to put in to help out?
