    Definitely agree with your statement that it's a lifestyle! I started worm farming two years ago and now produce hundreds of litres of vermicompost every year for my organic garden.

    Thank you for your tips on composting my friend . I compost in a big plastic container outside and it has worked for me. I feel like I am helping the environment. So glad so many people want to compost. 👏👏👏🌴🌴🌴🌴

    Thanks a lot for this video, I started composting just a week back and is very nervous about the smell and insects. I had a leaky bucket today and rushed to add dry leaves, cardboard small pieces and coco pit after stirring it vigorously. The smell was just starting and I fixed in time. Thanks bunch and lot of love ❤️

    Hii Ekta. This is so helpful. I've been getting a lot of smell and wetness in my compost but now I think that should be resolved. Just a suggestion. If you could increase your voice volume, it would be very helpful since it kinda gets dissolved into the background music. Hope you have a great day!

    • @SaltGoldman
      @SaltGoldman 2 роки тому +2

      Make sure your container or pot has good water drainage to avoid the smell. Or you can make few holes at the bottom of the compost container and keep another container below to collect the water and water your plants with it.

  • @balancedbraintamil2875
    @balancedbraintamil2875 10 місяців тому +2

    Thank you for the info. I have doubt about the container. Will plastic container react with the composting process and leach into the soil. Plz explain.

    Dear Ekta...kindly do a specific video on usage of bokashi powder because lately i am using bokashi but not getting desired results..and also let us know, can we use soil to absorb moisture???

  • @akmehrotra1949
    @akmehrotra1949 2 роки тому +2

    Thanks for the video.
    I am doing composting for last ten years and I do 2 stage composting,using Bokash.
    First process is pickling,which is done in a composting bin.Aftwr the bin is full,the contents shifted to another pot,plastic or earthen.
    My observation is the second part gives much foul smell in the first week of composting and it releases lots of foul smelling liquid.The total process takes about 3 months.
    I am not very convinced that using cocopeat or dry leaves can complete the composting in one stage only.
    Do you keep thi pot in open ?

    Helpful as always👍 I have a few questions though...
    How can I know the pH level (approx) of my soil and compost without any fancy equipment?
    If the soil or compost becomes too acidic, how can I reverse that and balance it?
    If I allow the insects etc to hang around the bin and eat the stuff in it for too long, can it be bad for the compost? Can a compost get ruined by too many insects in the bin for too long?
