Composting Shouldn’t Be A Mystery. It definitely has its tricks and nuances, but the science is pretty basic when you work it out and understand the components at play. That said, no one became a master composter overnight!
In today’s video, I take the 6 most asked questions on composting that I get in the comments and deep dive on each of them. Hopefully demystifying them in the process and taking us one step closer to composting nirvana!

hello from nc❤
Do you have info on growing asparagus? Two of my third year plants, are spindly and going straight to fern stage. Most are doing very well – as big around as my thumb! Why the difference?

Thanks for the video! I’m not sure how you’re taking requests for more info but I’ve noticed a lot of your videos is showing how to start plants and transplant them etc. Loving all your videos and I think that would be a great addition to your content to bring them start to finish. When is the best time to harvest specific plants, what you are looking for to recognize it is ready, what is the best method to harvest them, etc. thanks!
What about digging your compost elements directly in a dormant bed or area in the garden? My last compost pile drew in a lot of rodents feasting on the organic matter.
It's not related to this video, but it is a question, lol. I live in the deep south so a can generally grow year around with only an occasional light freeze. What plants do most people grow as an annual that can be grown for multiple years, like eggplant and peppers which can continue to grow for a few years giving a great season jump on harvesting.
Love this video! I've been composting for the past couple of years and I know my veggie garden loves it! ❤️
And if you did not make compost you would have to get rid of all the stuff that goes into it
Thank you for an informative video, Jeff. I have composted for years. Sometimes just in a big pile, other times in a bin, or lately in a vertical cylinder.
And while I have learned all of that stuff you talked about, I pay no attention to much of it.
I toss in whatever I get, making a point to avoid big woody twigs and branches and things like that. Beyond that, it’s all fair game.
I water it a little, I throw in a few scoops of manure from time to time, and mix it up now and then.
Mostly, it goes in when I plant things, directly into the planting sites. I don’t use it as a total garden dressing. For the most part, I just basically ignore it until I want some.
Just wondering, how is it that dead leaves are considered carbon rich if they were originally green when they were on the tree and full of nitrogen like grass?
since Ive been composting I have so much room in my bin on rubbish collection day.
Great video! What will happen if I plant on 100% compost (store bought compost) vs. garden soil or potting mix?
Thank you for your videos … quick question… found some ants on my compost pile … can i still use it?
What it a cheese/scramble eggs barf looking stuff that I just found coving a small start in my garden.? Love the info and great pictures of a homey garden.
