I've left the lid off mine too (actually I didnt make one lol) so I'm not sure how it's going to work - very slowly I suspect.<br />I know what you mean about those plastic bins though, I emptied another one today that was pretty much as uncomposted as the last one.<br />Thank you for popping by and leaving a comment.<br /><br />LindaLindachttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17307042289297886569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6979477368757454916.post-76567315495781505272013-04-03T18:26:00.014+01:002013-04-03T18:26:00.014+01:00Well, if you get results like this with just makin...Well, if you get results like this with just making it up as you go along, think what you could do with a plan! Well on second thoughts that may well spoil it. Looks like you had even more fun writing about it all. Thanks for dropping by my place recently, did that come across in a proper manner, well you know what I mean.Alistairhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17104382970502166560noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6979477368757454916.post-42403288805415407142013-04-01T08:59:41.405+01:002013-04-01T08:59:41.405+01:00Well done you.

It was Ok at producing compost although the stuff was a little slimmy. I now have 3 wooden bins, I find the stuff rots down slower but it is of a better quality. I dont have lids on mine which may slow things down but I wonder whether them being open to the elements helps make more friable stuff.Helen/patientgardenerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02164036792673009326noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6979477368757454916.post-37242971758922029952013-04-01T07:37:25.868+01:002013-04-01T07:37:25.868+01:00I'm doing some reading up on composts cos I th...I'm doing some reading up on composts cos I thought it would be as easy as chucking stuff in the bin and collecting at the bottom - wrong!<br />I bet you could build you stuff you know.
