Thank you for all the great info. I’m learning so much more about composting now too which is also something I’ve never done. I do see what you mean about the brown and green materials in terms of composting. Some stuff I found says two thirds brown to one third green. So that would make sense to add straw as the poop gets to be kind of heavy.
Once the pile thaws out in the spring does smell become a problem since the cold does damage to the good bacteria in the compost or does that not really happen since you’ve been adding straw over the winter? I don’t have a garden per say but I’m assuming I can just use this compost in my other plant beds for nutrients right?
