Learn how to make compost
The best soil for growing vegetables on the balcony is the soil that has
been improved by composting. Such soil contains rich nutrients, has a
long and stable fertilizer effect, and at the same time promotes the
formation of soil solid structure, and can greatly increase the soil's
ability to retain water, heat, air and fertilizer.
The production of compost is not very complicated. You only need the following picture to master
the method of compost production. Then after you use the Glaman Compostable PLA coated paper cup lid and biodegradable paper bowl, you can compost them at any time.
There are several considerations, which are also very important.
1. Because it is placed on the balcony or terrace, do not put too much
water, just slightly moist. This can reduce the peculiar smell. The top
layer should be covered with a layer of dry soil of 5 cm, which can
effectively prevent the breeding of flying insects and reduce the
peculiar smell.
2. The key to making compost is to obtain local materials, which is
environmentally friendly and convenient. The material is mainly green
material, but you must not put any meaty materials, such as fish bones
and meat, which will attract insects and maggots. You can choose other
materials, and add some dead branches and rotten leaves to it, which can
effectively enrich its nutrients. All materials must be as small as
possible to reduce the time required for composting.
3. You can also add organic fertilizer, peanuts, rapeseed fertilizer after oil extraction, don't be greedy, just a little bit.
4. It is recommended to use less loess for the added soil and mulching
soil. If you have coconut bricks or nutrient soil or wood chips, you can
add some to help the soil fluffy and dark. The soil you are using is
not fertile enough and hardened is also a good additive.
5. The composting process requires the participation of oxygen, so it
cannot be sealed and should be left open. There must be drainage holes
under the compost container to drain excess water. After it is done,
place it on the balcony or near the window sill where it will not be
exposed to rain. If there are flying insects, you can bask in the sun
and stir it to basically kill the flying insects.
6. 3-4 months in summer and 5-6 months in winter can be successfully
composted. At this time, the soil is dark, soft and delicate, with a
fresh smell of soil.
Composting is as simple as that. If you grow vegetables on the balcony
and make a few pots of compost, you will get soil suitable for vegetable
growth and full of nutrients in a few months. After you use the Glaman food grade paper cup lid, you can also compost the environmental protection paper lid.
