It is no surprise that damaged fruit rots fastest. So it is with your compost. Cut or bruise the green stuff to make quick and friable brown stuff.
- Shred twigs and stalks
- Chop up any hard stems or long shoots with secateurs to about one inch lengths.
- Leaves and other plant matter will rot quicker if the bugs and bacteria can get at them from more than just one end. So the more cutting, bruising, shredding, tearing, scrunching or chopping the better.
