Yes. Compost bins accept kitchen scraps other than dairy, greasey and oily, and meat products; and yard wastes such as grass clippings. Compostable materials may be grouped into the brown carbon-rich and the green nitrogen-rich categories. The peelings and other compostable materials break down into dark brown, fresh-smelling, organic matter-rich soil in anywhere from just under a month to just under a year. The amount of time that composting takes depends upon the type of material that's put into the compost bin or pile; and upon the meeting of certain standards. For the bin or pile must be kept adequately aired, heated, moistened and turned.
Rosi is an Italian equivalent of the English name "Rosie."
Specifically, the name functions as a feminine nickname in Italian. It is a diminutive for Rosa ("Rose"). The pronunciation will be "RO-zee" for the nickname and "RO-za" for the given name.
Yes, Magnolia Stellata needs ericaceous compost, but at the same time, no, it does not. The flowering plant in question prefers a slightly acidic to neutral pH level even though proper drainage and lighting let it survive in a variety of soils, including heavy clay. It therefore will have need of the acidic-loving, lime-hating compost in less desirable environments (where an ericaceous compost fertilizer helps), such as slightly alkaline (sweet) soils.

Well that's kind of an easy question some disadvantages to organic fertilizer is that
1.)its way to expensive to buy
2.)it takes along time to start to work in the soil that it has been put in
3.)the organic fertilizers release the nutrients in a very very very very VERY s.....l......o.....wmanner(way).
I don't know its botanical name, but Winterberry is a type of deciduous holly that has red or orange berries, depending on the type. You will need a male Winterberry if you want your female Winterberry to produce berries. The type with orange berries is one of my favorite shrubs for winter interest. They grow well in my USDA zone 8b area.
The compost will have an earthy smell and will not smell bad. It will have a very dark, almost black color, and it will look like good potting soil similar to what comes out of the bags you buy at the store. It should not have large pieces of debris left in it. It so, it must be turned over in the bin and given more time. See the related link below.
Holly is eaten by pigs and wild boar, sheep, deer and a variety of birds. Most herbivores will have a go at holly but the holly will fight back and you will find that holly trees grazed by cattle will produce needlelike thorns at the lower end that will deter grazers.
I love it when I get maggots in my compost bin because they speed the decomposition of the organic materials. Its important however to move the bin far enough away from the house that there are no objectionable odors. If you use a compost accelerant it will speed up the decomposition without attracting flies which lay their eggs and hatch as maggots. you can get compost alive for green matter from gardensalive.com which will do this.
If your lips are white, this can mean a variety of things. It might mean that you are dehydrated. It could also mean that your circulation is not good.
Cut the stem close to the ground, then allow bush to turn brown before composting Lift root ball in increments, allow soil to fall off root ball in small amounts before composting roots Incorporate soil in other containers or garden or compost
the things that go in a compost heap are a variety of things, don't put food in, or moist things, use brown items such as soil, manure and green items such as vegetable waste.
also put in lime, because the alkali from the lime will counter the acid which is made from decomposing the items of the compost heap. make sure to put extra soil in aswell because that is where the organisms are that make the compost heap work. :)
Economy, efficiency, recyclability, resourcefulness, sanitation and sustainability are reasons why compost is used in a garden.
Specifically, compost gives the gardener dark, fresh, nutrient-rich organic matter that functions as amendment, fertilizer and mulch. It is formed by the natural breakdown of carbon- and nitrogen-rich materials. It therefore saves the cost, time, and wear-and-tear of buying amendments, fertilizers and mulches. It serves to discourage pathogens and pests through the removal of non-diseased, non-toxic, recyclable garden debris and ground litter. It uses local resources to promote plant, soil and soil food web well-being.
Similar to that of a slug, the worm would die and who ever done the deed would be thought of as one of them cruel kids to avoid.
First: the caveat. With the possible exception of spiny Barberries (Berberis) there are no absolutely deer-proof plants. If the herd is large enough, and food is scarce enough, deer have been known to eat almost anything. That said, there are plants that are much less palatable to deer.

poison plants, they might still eat them but they will never come back
That it provides a healthy environment conducive to optimal growth is the way in which compost is related to plant growth.
Specifically, compost can be considered the end product of a decomposition process which yields dark, fresh, nutrient-rich matter for the soil environment in which plants grow. Nutrients such as carbon and nitrogen count among the necessary ingredients for healthy soils, soil food web members, and plants. Compost provides the nutrients in such a way that they can be taken in by plants. It also represents the source of both improved air and moisture passage through and retention by soil since it contributes to how soil holds together.
A compost heap has no lid. But compost containers such as bins indeed have lids. The cover makes it possible for compostable materials to contain smells, discourage unwanted micro-organisms, hide from foraging wildlife, keep low profiles in clean neighborhoods, maintain proper environmental conditions (of light, moisture, temperature), and resist dispersal by winds. It permits composting to take place in shorter composting times since layer-turning takes place in more confined spaces.
No, diseased, live and treated weeds should not go in a compost bin even though yes, dead weeds can. Weeds that suffer from disease or treatment with herbicides or that still support living parts do not belong in the bin since infections may spread, synthetic materials may pollute compostable materials and viable plants may self-propagate. Dead weeds contrastingly will be compostable if previously "fried" atop exposed metal or within dark, sealed plastic bags.
It is a word, because people use it. It is not a word that you would use in formal or business language.
A compost tumbler is a drum mounted on rollers that has an attached crank thus making the turning of the compost easier. This turning mixes air with the composting material and speeds up the composting process. You can make your own or you can buy one from Compos Tumbler or other gardening companies.
Stellate is the term which describes a flower whose shape resembles that of a star.
Specifically, the word functions as an adjective. It originates in the Latin word stellatus for "covered with stars". Its meaning will include "star-shaped" in regard to objects (such as flowers) and "star-spangled" in other contexts.
everything that came from a plant. avoid adding meat and milk products cos they stink and atract street cats and stray dogs. also avoid dog feces as they may contain diseases. cow and other grass eating animals manure is fine.
