Compost is a wonderful natural resource that helps plants grow well. Today I am going to tell you how to start a compost heap. First we must use only household and garden matter including tea leaves and egg shells, but we must wash them first. Don’t use any meat or grain products because this attracts rats. Find a place in your garden that gets a few hours of sunlight each day. The compost also needs moisture but it will get this from condensation. Cover the heap with a sheet of strong-plastic if the weather is wet. Keep adding to pile and after six months your compost can be used for your fields, gardens.
