Subpod Mini Compost System. Outdoor Compost Bin & Worm Farm

Product Information

Let me start responding to your points by firstly reiterating where we share common goals. It’s to get people gardening and composting. Personally I started gardening as a preschool child and went on to own a commercial salads nursery and teach horticulture at various colleges. So I’ve a lot of composting experience. Before we tell you how to give these guests a hint that it might be time for them to move along, we’d like to talk to you a little about the ecosystems found in soil and compost. Subbed themselves have described SubPod as a modular in-ground vermiculture composting system which is succinct, though perhaps not as descriptive as my description. And it should be noted that the word vermiculture is used by SubPod. Since first writing this review SubPod has extended their offer to include a SubPod Mini. I’ve added a SubPod Mini review below. It can also be used to combat food waste, which is good. What is Subpod Compost? We have schools like Lindisfarne Grammar School in Northern New South Wales in Australia, who have set up a large school gardening project and composting system. They've chosen us as their composting partner, and have 42 Subpod installed around their school grounds! Their students add food waste to them, harvest the compost and grow lush plants and vegetables

Turn Regularly: Regular turning helps speed up the composting process and prevents any unpleasant smells.

The more thoroughly you stir your food waste into the bedding, the less likely you will have a problem with flies and other insects. If you add a bit more moist bedding (moist carbon), it is easier to bury the food waste thoroughly when you are first getting going. Could I have gotten a compost setup for cheaper? Probably. But the Subpod videos and community has completely removed my need to independently seek out the information required to understand the process, which is also valuable to me as my time is extremely limited.

Of course we shouldn’t look on people asking questions as a problem. They are actually a goldmine of opportunities to solve the problems people are experiencing and I’m sure Subpod will look at them and keep developing the product. It’s great to hear you’re enthusiastic about getting people into gardening and composting, that makes two of us. You can compost a much bigger variety of materials in Subpod than in other worm farm systems! See the full list below: Chop the food scraps into smaller pieces before they go in your kitchen caddy so that they break down faster in SubpodSchools around the world have really taken to the Subpod system for composting. Subpod can form the cornerstone of a school gardening project, helping kids learn skills and traits they’ll carry with them for the rest of their lives. Sparing the indigenous ants will help keep the ecosystem balanced. The easiest way to focus your borax baits for just fire ant consumption is to get a container of bait as close to the fire ant mound as safely possible. Then let the worker ants take care of the rest.
