That means you don\u2019t need to go far every time you want to add to your alchemical earth brew. It also means you can make compost even if you don\u2019t have a lot of free ground space.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What&#8217;s To Love<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-css-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>The enclosed container heats up the contents and speeds up the composting process<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Because it\u2019s indoors, it&#8217;s efficient all year round as the temperature indoors is more even<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>It won\u2019t be raided by rodents, dogs or other foraging beasties<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>It\u2019s odour-free when you use the right materials to help it break down<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Many indoor containers are designed with a tap to drain excess fluid, called Compost Tea, which makes a fantastic natural fertilizer<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>It takes up less space<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">WHAT CAN YOU PUT INTO YOUR COMPOST?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-css-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p>A good compost needs a combination of \u2018green\u2019s and \u2018browns\u2019. The greens are nitrogen-rich, moist scraps and the browns are carbon-rich, dry, and take longer to decompose. If you are using a Bokashi composter, you can add things you would normally avoid in your compost, such as dairy and meat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>GREENS:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Fruit &amp; veggie peels<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Coffee grounds, filters and teabags<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Mouldy cheese (only with white mould though)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Meat<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>BROWNS:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Paper &amp; cardboard<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Eggshells<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Stale bread<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>DON&#8217;T ADD:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Human and animal feces<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Deep fried fats and oils, unless it\u2019s a small part of a foodstuff such as cheese, salad dressing or a fried food<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Anything with green or black mould<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Materials that have been treated with toxic chemicals<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Try using organic food wherever possible, ensuring to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.faithful-to-nature.co.za\/catalogsearch\/result\/?q=veg+wash\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">rinse your fruit and veg properly<\/span><\/a> before you peel it (always) to remove pesticides<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>SOME MORE UNUSUAL COMPOSTABLE ITEMS:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Old wine and beer<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Hair from your brush<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Nail clippings (make sure they are free of nail polish though)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">BOKASHI &amp; BOKASHI BRAN<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The secret to indoor composting is to help your compost along by adding some beneficial micro-organisms that will assist it to ferment and break down. Regularly adding a layer of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.faithful-to-nature.co.za\/Earth-Probiotic-Bokashi-Bran-p-4959.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Bokashi Bran <\/a>over the waste in your bin does the job, as well as minimizes any unwelcome smells. Bokashi Bran is a naturally fermented bran that contains probiotics, that is, beneficial little microbes that work for you by digesting and fermenting your scraps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">PRE-COMPOST<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-css-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p>Once this fermented mix is ready, you will have a pre-compost. To complete the process, dig a hole, mix the pre-compost in with the soil and leave it for a few weeks, as it is very acidic at first. You can then either plant directly into this prepared bed, or dig up this super soil to spread in your garden. You can also add the fermented Bokashi pre-compost to your outdoor compost heap to speed up its breaking-down process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>ENRICHING THE SOIL USING YOUR COMPOST:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Nurture your houseplants<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Enrich the soil in your garden and as a fertilizer<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Enrich new planting areas and create super flourishing flower and vegetable Beds<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Scatter over your lawn<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Put around tree bases for a nutrient boost.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">COMPOST TEA (EXCESS LIQUID)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-css-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p>Another benefit of using a container to compost is that you can drain off excess liquid and use it as a nutritious \u2018tea\u2019. Every few days, you can drain accumulated liquid and either pour it down your drains, giving them a good clean in the process, or you can use it as a super nourishing tea for your plants \u2013 just make sure to dilute it 100 to 1 as it\u2019s very acidic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What nourishes us from the earth should go back to nourishing the earth, it makes common sense!
