Ruth Stout style composting (2 spots) - PEP BB gardening.sand.RuthStout

These are 3 gallon buckets so about 12 gallons of compost documented for this BB. It took 3 or 4 weeks to generate this amount.

Sorry, I’ve been out of town!

Yes, it is a 10 gallon bucket. I could find any markings on the bucket that it’s 10 gal, but I used a 1/2 gal measuring cup to fill it with 10 gal water.

Where did you get 50 gallons of apple scraps!? lol

Moontower Cider Company in Austin, TX  ...a conscious small biz.   Their cider is as amazing as their commitment to recycling their scraps.   I hauled 7 barrels every week for 2 months at the beginning of this year.   It composted with wood chips, leaves, and grass to make enough potting soil for my upstart nursery to last me a year.
