Hi
I've just gone semi-retired from work (20 hours a week now) and I'm determined to have a good go at growing some nice food for our table. I've also just put up a new greenhouse, so hope that will fit in nicely with our recently purchased Hotbin.
I just have a couiple of questions if anyone can help?
1. I want to put some shrub prunnings in the HotBin - suitably cut to 2" lengths :-
.
a) Are there any shrubs that I should NOT use?
b) Should I just compost the green prunnings or am I ok to use the more "Woody" bits too?
2. My HotBin is now running at around 30C but has been up to 40C - is this because our bin is not full ( its only just passed half way yet)?
Hoping you can help.
