Compost and Mulch

There are two ways to get compost blocks in Deepworld.

One way is to plant a bulb in an earth block in any purified world. Once the bulb has grown into a mature plant, the earth block will become compost.

The other way to get compost is by creating a working composter. These are ecological machines that are found in temperate biomes.

Sifting and sorting are ways to harvest vermicompost. The term in question references the dark-colored, fresh-smelling, nutrient-rich organic matter -- also called humus -- which results from the decomposing of carbon- and nitrogen-rich, small recyclables by earthworms, red wrigglers, and white worms. The product responds to harvesting by a sifting screen or sorting manually or mechanically.

63 is a composite number because it has divisors other than 1 and itself. Specifically, it can be divided by 1, 3, 7, 9, 21, and 63. Since it has multiple factors, it does not meet the definition of a prime number, which has only two distinct positive divisors: 1 and itself.

Any organic plant waste can be composted in a compost heap, and the resulting compost (soil) used in the garden.

Yes, hoever you may need to riddle it to get rid of old roots and refresh it by adding some general purpose compost.

Greens and browns are essential components of composting, as they provide the necessary nitrogen and carbon, respectively. Greens, such as kitchen scraps and fresh plant material, are rich in nitrogen, which helps to fuel microbial activity that breaks down organic matter. Browns, including dried leaves and cardboard, offer carbon, which balances the compost and helps maintain moisture levels. Together, they create an optimal environment for decomposition, resulting in nutrient-rich compost.

Yes, pencils can be composted since graphite contains potassium, which is important in plant and soil food web well-being. But no, they should not be placed in the compost pile since their manufacture includes color, glue, toxic phenol-filled resin, and wax.

Soil with seeds is a control group in an experiment using soil with compost and seeds. The results will indicate the role of dark-colored, fresh-smelling, nutrient-rich humus in the appropriate timing and proper development of seeds.

Yes, nuts can be composted if the composting process does not involve worms. Nuts may be added as brown, carbon-rich compostable materials either as the food or the shell and will break down (albeit slowly).

Yes, vermi-compost is bio-fertilizer.

Specifically, a bio-fertilizer adds or augments nutrients in soil through the input of organic materials. Compost exists through the breakdown of compostable materials -- which are carbon- and nitrogen-rich -- into dark, fresh, nutrient-rich organic matter. Vermi-compost represents the breakdown which happens through the use of special worms.

There is no need to mix old and new compost. Old compost ,if ready, should be used on its own. New material will take time to rot down to compost.

Cedar Grove offers several kinds of compost. They sell landscape mulch, organic compost, compost with manure and compost mixed with sand. One can order the compost online.

There are a number of brands that provide good quality compost turning. Deciding the best is down to personal preference. Some of the best brands are Yard Butler and Exaco Trading.

Configuration (contained or uncontained piles) to employ, location (kitchen, yard) to select, materials (carbon- and nitrogen-rich indoor and outdoor recyclables), and uses (amendment, fertilizer, mulch) to prioritize are compost strategies. The term strategy refers to the realization of large-scale, long-term planning, all of which is involved in the above-mentioned decision-making.

Compost at the bottom of the container has been there longest and will be the most decomposed of the pile.

Eliminating any decomposing animals or foods and removing the nitrogen-rich materials in question to the burn, compost or garbage pile are ways to eliminate flies from a pile of grass clippings not meant as a compost heap. The presence of the insects in question indicates that opportunities for feeding, mating, and sheltering are offered in attractively plentiful and secure ways.

There are a variety of containers that can be used for your compost pile. You can purchase containers specifically designed to hold your compost, or you can get creative and make your own. This can be done using plastic storage containers, wood, trash cans, etc. You can also choose to forgo a container altogether, and just have a free standing compost pile in your garden.

One can purchase a kitchen compost bin from any good department or hardware store such as Walmart or Lowes. Alternatively, one can purchase this from eBay if needed.

To get mulch dye out of a t-shirt that is pink, use color guard balls. These can be thrown in the wash with the clothes, and will not allow other colors to fade.
