Description
Composting doesn’t have to be hard work—but it does help to have smart strategies for getting the highest results. In this class, you'll learn how to turn any homestyle composting method into biocomplete compost. "Biocomplete" is a term that is used to describe the microbial balance of microbes that do the work of restoring your soil, while boosting plant vigor. We will cover how to adjust the balance of your materials with appropriate watering and maintenance to build, grow and sustain your microbes.
