Compost does not necessarily need sunlight to decompose effectively. The decomposition process primarily relies on the right balance of moisture, oxygen, and organic materials. Sunlight can help speed up the process by warming the compost pile and promoting microbial activity, but it is not a requirement for decomposition to occur.
To effectively use composted pumpkins in your garden, mix the compost into the soil before planting to improve soil quality. The nutrients in the compost will help nourish the plants and promote healthy growth. Additionally, the compost will help retain moisture in the soil and reduce the need for chemical fertilizers.
soil, water, air, sunlight, and somthing to put all that in
Yes, phytoplankton are able to decompose. They cannot do it alone, as they need bacteria to do it for them.
no they do not need sunlight to survive
Plants and animals are living things, like us. The most important things they need are water, food, light and shelter.
To effectively plant in compost without soil, you can use a method called "container gardening." Fill a container with compost, plant your seeds or seedlings in the compost, and make sure to water and care for the plants regularly. The compost will provide nutrients for the plants to grow without the need for traditional soil.
Plants need sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide to carry out photosynthesis effectively.
Rain will not hurt a compost pile, unless it floods. In order for a compost pile to decompose and form compost, it is necessary to keep it from drying out. Rain will assist you in this activity.
Rain is necessary to help things rot. Compost piles need water to decompose plant matter and turn it into black gold.

A compost bin needs air holes to allow oxygen to enter the compost pile. Oxygen is necessary for the decomposition process carried out by microorganisms in the compost, helping to break down organic materials effectively and prevent the pile from becoming smelly or anaerobic.
Compost walls can be effectively utilized in sustainable building practices by providing natural insulation, regulating indoor temperature, and reducing the need for traditional building materials. The compost walls can also help to improve indoor air quality and reduce the overall carbon footprint of the building.
Generally you'd expect a compost heap to be about three feet across and two or three feet high. Much smaller than that and whatever you're composting will probably not heat up into "fast compost", but will simply decompose slowly, the way leaves decompose on a forest floor. That being said, it is perfectly legitimate to create "sheet compost" over a garden area rather than building a specific compost heap. To do that, you layer organic mulch thickly on top of whatever area you want to benefit from the compost (obviously not on top of tiny seeds or seedlings, though) and simply wait a year or more for it to break down into compost where it lies.
Water, well draining soil or compost, soluble nutrients and fertilizer, sunlight, and for delicate plants - frost free.
Yes. You can add honey to a compost pile. However, one of the reasons for a compost pile is to encourage the natural bacteria to decompose the organic material. Since honey is a natural antibiotic and anti-bacterial agent, adding too much honey may not have the results you desire.
Then you need to add water and stir it. It should be damp, like a wrung-out sponge. Adding high-nitrogen material, such as manure or grass clippings, will help also.
To effectively set up and maintain an indoor worm compost system, you will need a container with ventilation, bedding material like shredded paper or leaves, and red worms. Add food scraps like fruit and vegetable peels, but avoid meat and dairy. Keep the system moist but not too wet, and regularly turn the compost to aerate it. Harvest the compost when it is dark and crumbly, and use it to fertilize your plants.
