Compost Activator

Organicar Compost Activator uses natural microbes to safely and naturally speed decomposition of yard waste. Our organic compost decomposer promotes higher temperatures that increase decomposition speed, help reduce odors, deactivate weed seeds and pathogens and help build healthy soil. Because it combines both thermophilic (high temperature) and mesophilic (low temperature) bacteria, it’s effective under a wide range of climatic conditions. 2 lbs. treats up to 4 cubic yards of compost. Not recommended for animal waste. USA. See more composting products from Gaiam

How does a composting system work?

Thursday, February 11th, 2010

I mean…. how exactly does the organic waste inside a compost bin break down into compost?

the organic matter is broken down by the action of bacteria in the soil.therefore it is a good idea to put a sprinkle of good soil between layers from time to time.the bacteria can be fed by adding sulphate of ammonia or compost accelerators obtained from garden centres. just sprinkle some between layers of the organic matter.the process is slow so it will take a year for good results.

It also directly mixes compost tea, which is great for your garden.How it works: As the top barrel is rotated, gravity and centrifugal forces squeeze out excess liquid from the compost which flows out onto the base where it’s channeled into the barrel. From there it mixes directly with the rain water collected from your gutters forming nutrient packed pl
