Hello all
I am back and enjoying some very cold weather indeed.
Due to some nice welsh wind I have had to dismantle my greenhouse for tis own safety so I will be re erecting that soon but I had my new compost bin delivered today so Boris the Bin now has a home and Ive sat him on a gravel patch near the house - in a half shade/half sun position and have made sure that worms are able to get inside - its next to a nice big plant bush thing - no idea what so I know there is soil around and access.
My only question is that because I have never ha a compost bin - what do I put in it? Whats good and not so good?
Also I have a son and a bf and have heard that they will be able to help the compost heap along - although not sure if ill be able to convince my boyfriend to pee in a jug but my seven year old may be a different story.
Also how long before Id have useable compost?
Any help appreciated.
Second question is - when seed packs say plant indoors/ plant outdoors.....can I take the plant 'indoors' as potting up and putting in my greenhouse or does it mean inside my nice warm house - as I have a few things that need to be started soon according to the packs and would like to make a start on my greenhouse planting.
many thanks
