[USCC] Composting is all about sustainability

[John A. Crockett]

I see the vege plants in my gardens thriving, all the carbon in those
plants, carbon that the plants took out of the atmosphere.  How much can we
fight global warming by amending soil with high quality compost, so the
plants can thrive, without petro-chemical fertilizers & pesticides?

I see composting as a means to vibrantly healthy plants, nutritious and
delicious fresh produce, with NO chemical fertilizers or pesticides. When
we're stewards of the soil we don't need those petro-chemicals, chemical
fertilizers and pesticides that kill all the life in the soil, the soil food
web which nature designed to take care of plants.

Then, our Magic Soil compost is made by microbes that have the benefit of
our forced aeration systems, so they have plenty of oxygen during the
composting process.  Last week we did 3 more rate of air flow tests, and the
average rate of air flow was 17 times the volume of the compost, in fresh
air, every hour, 24/7, to hold CO2 down between 1 - 2%.  Those tests were on
10 day old food residuals compost. We know that newer compost requires more
aeration.
