Composting: All the Skills and Tools You Need to Get Started

Composting is something that has been practiced since the dawn of agriculture and is something every home gardener needs to be doing.

Making your own compost will help your plants to grow bigger as well as returning much needed nutrients to the soil for when they are needed by the plants you are cultivating. It's a fun and easy way to make sure you provide plants with the best chance of getting all the nutrition they need.

Here is a preview of what you'll learn...

- What is composting?

- Why start composting?

- The materials needed for composting

- How to start composting

- Finished compost

- The use of cooked food

- Composting tips and other concerns

- Much, much more!

Composting is a completely natural process in which organic material is left to decay over a period of time. This organic material, which can include garden waste, manure or kitchen scraps, becomes a dark substance, often called humus or "black gold". In nature, this process happens naturally over a period of time, but with certain techniques it can be speeded up for use in home gardens.
