Best Answer

Composting food scraps through the help of red worms is the way in which pipe compost works. The process requires a 3-foot (0.92-meter) section of PVC pipe whose internal diameter is 4 - 6 inches (10.16 - 15.24 centimeters). The lower two-thirds will be anchored in the ground after ½-inch (1.27-centimeter) holes being drilled regularly into the sides while the upper third receives a removable flower pot as a cover and food scraps and red worms as respectively compostable materials and composting agents.
