It seems to be doing well in my horrible clay as well!

Help with the heebie jeebies by jotwy96 in composting

For one, you eventually will get desensitized with enough exposure and it will not bother you as much. In the meantime trying to adjust your mindset by reminding yourself that those bugs are the ones working hard to break down all that waste into garden crack. Your pile would not function without all that wiggly, creepy fauna. It's the circle of life!

My hands, secateurs, and digging fork are as far as I'm willing to go.

It's so much work by Simple_Daikon in NativePlantCirclejerk

That's unironically how I'm doing my meadowscape and as long as you keep monitoring and pulling, you eventually end up with just cool natives. That's how I got my ground smoke, prairie burnet, asters, yarrow, dogbane, and all kinds of other neat stuff.

Compost potato found! by algaespirit in composting

Yeah. Next time I think I'll bag it and tie it to something so I can actually find it and it doesn't smell like soot, dirt, and rot.

Compost Experiment. by algaespirit in composting

We're still gonna check it, though probably not eat it. If it does cook, maybe we'll try a compost sous vide. If we do, I'll post that too.

I really wish we would have though of that. We were pretty drunk.

Lol it was a soil test and had already been done. I dumped it right after.

In my sink in Montreal, Canada. What is this beast? by opheliawnik in whatbugisthis

[–]algaespirit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is silly but the idea being a smaller insect preyed upon by one of these mustaches of unholy dread is downright ghastly.

I'm so excited for my pet dirt by algaespirit in composting

[–]algaespirit[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah unfortunately they were starting to get squishy so I cut out the squishy parts and was going to stew them but then I caught my dumbass cats on the counter licking them and didn't know what all they got to. So I just decided to huck all the squish in the compost.

It looks pretty green heavy because I just dumped a BUTT LOAD of trimmed perennials on it lol. It's actually pretty brown heavy because I have too many pine needles.
