Fluffy/floaty companion plants?
Comments (20)Well! I checked out the Plant World website (took about half a day! What a range!), then I checked out the Aussie import/customs laws, and I *think* I can have flower seeds by cultivar sent to Australia without paying an inspection fee. I will have to contact our customs people to confirm, as the website is irritatingly vague. If so.. I'm in heaven! Thank you so much Camps! I can finally have a humble geranium! Hahaha. I am deliriously happy about this. Some (non-garden-y types) may say disproportionately so. I bite my thumb at those people! I have not been to the southwest of England since I was 4, visiting grandparents in Devon. That was Christmas time, and I remember a lot of snow and wearing mittens. Mostly I was concerned that Father Christmas wouldn't know where to bring my presents. So I couldn't really comment on the climatic similarities, but I will take your word for it. I don't know what my soil pH is, but I know it's acidic because the hydrangeas are all blue. I will do a soil test one day soon, my blueberries are outgrowing their pots and I suspect I will have to fiddle with pH when I get around to planting them in a hedge-y type configuration. I'm having a crack at this winter sowing caper this year, so yes, it's about time I got my act together.

Comments (8)Re; Cow manure. Your compost is likly weed free judging from the origional contents. The manure is high in nitrogen which will restart the compost heating , but adding cow manure (fresh,old and crusty or otherwise) will probably contain a lot of weed seed. You would also reset the clock for composting the manure and thereby delaying when it will be totaly finished. Now,back to the unlimited supply of cow manure. It makes very good compost without other additions other than moisture.Just heap it up and keep it damp while turning same as you have been or skip the turning and get same result over a longer period. Back to your origional question about adding manure to incomplete compost made with leaves and kitchen scraps. That is a good idea once the manure has gone through initial high heat and decompsiton kill viability of seeds. Starting with manure mixed with other material is also fine since the high heat stage will occur. If you have room to maintain multiple piles/bins of compostiable material,that can actualy reduce time spent vs quanity of compost produced. As you found when you just let the material sit long enough without turning,it winds up fine compost. Toss every thing togeather in a "NURSE" pile as it becomes available or you can shanghai family and frinds as free labor in bringing it to the nurse pile. Continue with the two batchs as you are doing now paying attention to detail on moisture and turning while the nurse pile quitly go's about it's business with minium attention. When you are ready to start a new batch,pull material which is weeks or months along in the process from nurse pile and begain working it. There will be times when material has been in the nurse pile long enough to be finished and useably with little to no effort on your part other than gathering and moveing material to the pile....See MoreFluffy bug.
