Hey everyone! I'm looking to start my own compost and would love some guidance. I've heard that adding old fruits and vegetables is a good start, but I'm curious about what other ingredients I can include to make it super effective. Any tips? Thanks in advance!

You'll want a good mix of green and brown materials. Think of adding grass clippings and kitchen scraps, alongside cardboard, sawdust, or hay. A balanced 50-50 ratio works great! You can also turn the pile occasionally to speed things up, and some people even suggest adding a bit of urine for extra nitrogen – though that's up to you!

Awesome, I'll definitely try to mix it up like that. Thanks a lot!
