That it is considered a brown-colored, carbon-rich recyclable is a reason why compost rich in cellulose is likely to be poor in nitrogen. Dark-colored, fresh-smelling, nutrient-rich organic matter called compost or humus originates in and possesses carbon and nitrogen from respectively brown-colored, dead, decaying, dying and green-colored, living recyclables. The chemical formula for cellulose reveals contributions from carbon, hydrogen and oxygen: C6H10O5.
