1 lb. equals 3 cups
How much to use: Select a partially shaded site that is on level ground and at least 4 foot x 4 foot. Add initial layer of waste including twigs and branches for air circulation. Layers should be 6 to 12 inches deep. Add Compost Starter – one cup for 16 square feet of layer area.
Evenly moisten the layer but do not soak. Repeat with additional layers of waste adding Compost Starter and moisture with each new layer. Turn the pile once a week to allow air to penetrate the center.
