Every gardener knows that the key to perfect soil is good compost, but not everybody knows how to make it or how easy it is to make. It doesn't just come in bags from the garden centre, it doesn't have to smell like a farmyard, and it doesn't cost a penny.
In this book, Clare Foster demystifies the art of composting:
- From building a compost box to selecting the best ingredients.
- From choosing the ideal accelerator to maintaining the optimum conditions for decomposition.
- From household and garden rubbish to the best soil improver around.
By taking some dead leaves, grass cuttings and old banana skins and enlisting some help from bacteria, insects and nature, you can improve and enrich your soil, feed your plants and nourish your vegetables, restoring the natural balance of life in your garden.
