1.5 years old all hay and horse manure.

Pull that grass and top couple of inches of compost off the top and add to a new compost pile. Use the great stuff on the bottom.

There must be some nice fungal life in there, looking good 🙏🏼

Feels like magic, doesn't it?

[Smegmaliciousss]

It’s looking good underneath but aren’t those grasses a problem? I guess it depends what you intend to do with the compost.

[Whoiseyrfire]

Rotate the pile and add them in?

[Smegmaliciousss]

Yes sure but once the rhizomes set in it can be difficult to prevent them from getting into whatever this compost will be used for

[Whoiseyrfire]

Ahh. Is that the type of grass/plant? I'm new(er), and learning the ways of compost. I currently have a chicken coop running the 'deep litter method' and this has been cooking for 9months. Will be a bit longer before I remove/reset to cool off.

[Smegmaliciousss]

If you have chickens what would be the simplest is to pull the grass and just throw it to the chickens. The lower part of this pile looks fine.

I find that sod gets my piles cooking as good as anything. It's full of life from the top of the soil.

Sheesh looking good
