Compost kitchen waste quickly to reuse it fully
Many of the nutrients plants need for growth can be found in everyday kitchen scraps. These goodies are reusable, but aren’t available to plants without transformation.
Transform kitchen waste into plant food
One way is with chickens. You can feed them vegetable scraps and collect their poo to add as a nitrogen waste in your compost, but raising your own isn’t practical for many urban dwellers.
Another option is worm farming. Fed a strict vegetarian diet, red and tiger worms excrete castings as your reward. Worms, like chickens, need to be looked after, and collecting castings is tedious if you want to rescue the worms from perishing in garden soil.
Nature offers a superior solution with compost micro-organisms. Transforming kitchen scraps with natural microbes gets you nourishing compost that enriches and improves soil.
Composting kitchen waste
Composting accelerates the way nature returns fallen and dead organic matter to the soil, enriching it.
With kitchen waste, one constant composting challenge is meeting its strong demand for air, specifically oxygen. If kept well aerated, your reward is its quick transformation into compost.
The risk of inadequate aeration is a slowdown in composting as acids accumulate, degrading the quality of your compost. The worst outcome is when wastes start to rot with a disgusting smell.
Traditional compost bins and tumblers require frequent manual mixing to aerate the waste. The mixing must be thorough or else there could be chunks of poorly aerated waste.
Recycling kitchen waste into compost is done best with Bioverter, which is designed to self-aerate and eliminate the uncertainty of manual mixing. Its ability to handle kitchen scraps as your main waste feed enables you to recycle nutrient-rich everyday scraps quickly and fully into nutritious compost.
