1 year agoHey thanks for the information! Anecdotally, how long did it take for the eggshells to break down for you (if you kept them in). I’m not planning on using any of this until next spring/summer so I’m not too worried about what will be breaking down short-term.
Either way, I’ll have a massive amount of leaves coming in this fall from my property, so this will be 90% leaves when all is said and done!
I could definitely see myself going to at least two bins, I’ll have to keep my eye out for more pallets!
I read somewhere that the cardboard on the bottom can help in the beginning to keep the bottom of the pile moist when the pile is small. No idea if that’s true or actually helpful, but I had cardboard so I figired I’d give it a shot. It’ll fall apart eventually anyway!
