New idea: I have everything it takes to make a fantastic garden, but I dont know how. I need help. This is why:
My family has celiac disease, so we cook produce every day and could easily pile up all those scraps into compost, then I would enjoy growing more cukes/carrots etc in my own garden!
My 6 little chickens will be moving into a little coop and run in a few weeks, where their poop will be easily contained in a manageable little 6X8 ft heap.
So, does anybody know about composting with chicken poop? I tried one black plastic compost device, but I failed. It has growing onions in it and lots of spiderwebs and the whole thing smells like mold. I never added chicken poop to it. But I sure won't be adding any of that moldy stuff to a garden I want to eat from! I have a bum shoulder, so I never was able to turn the contents of it. I believe my compost pile will have to be different so I can get in and maybe flip the contents over.
I try to use Square Foot Gardening, so I have that book. But if anybody has pictures of a good way that works for them, please post!
