• I thought worms couldn't survive in compost barrels? Good info, I'll keep all that in mind...

    I get a lot of grass cuttings and then there's all our kitchen waste, which doesn't amount to a great deal but it'll all add up... Don't want to attract rats so figured a barrel would be the best solution, thinking maybe a box with a flip lid might suit us better...

    Is it worth giving kitchen waste a quick blitz in the blender first then turning that over with the grass cuttings/garden waste...

  • @dancing james has one of those thermal compost things.

    From looking at them I wonder if you could insulate a barrel composters for the same outcome.

    Or try one of those little indoor bokashi bins someone posted recently.

  • I won't need insulation here, coldest it gets is ~10°c at this time of year... Just trying to figure out the quickest way to get good compost; barrel, worms on a heap/in a box... I don't wanna throw away stuff we can use instead of buying compost from the shop (which isn't bloody cheap!)...
