When I was doing this near a suburban area, the health department must be involved. They brought out a thermometer on a 3 foot probe to monitor the temperature inside the pile. As soon as the temp began to fall, it was time to turn the leaves as the oxygen had run out, they said. The microbes need oxygen to work. The paperwork was a pain, but I learned a few things from those guys.One year to compost it. I turn my piles more infrequently. Just need to keep it cooking to kill the weeds.
HOW STUPID IS THIS??I have a ready supply of horse manure, but do not like the weeds; how would you mulch it, and for how many years?
I use horse manure but it sits piled up in the barn all winter and by the time I use it is is powder. I also when I plant a plant dig a deep hole then put manure in the bottom then a layer of dirt and then the plant. That way the weed seed if it has any are way to deep to growI have a ready supply of horse manure, but do not like the weeds; how would you mulch it, and for how many years?
