Default compost

To all,
I started my compost bin about 4 years ago and this year was the second year running that we used our own organic compost. Never added any compost agent, bugs, worms, newspapers, etc. Wasn't convinced at first that it would work but if you stick at it, it'll work and I am really impressed by the good quality compost we got.

Decided to turn the compost early this year and took me the best part of a sunny afternoon to empty out the bin into various wheelbarrows and assorted containers. Throughout the compost there were plenty of worms and bugs and creepy crawlies so I'd say it you wait long enough, they'll come.

Happy gardening!
B.
