Compost pits can be built according to
the type of residential building you live
in. if you live in an independent house,
an underground composting process
can be prepared in the garden at your
house. It consists of three basic steps:
digging of the pit, placing of organic
waste in it and covering it with soil.
Such a compost pit can be easily built
without high expenses, thus is the
ideal model for those who might find
other methods of composting difficult
to implement, owing to the
technicalities or amount of fund
required.
While you prepare a compost pit,
make sure you follow these
measures:
Cut the organic waste into small
pieces. Mix carbon-rich waste like
paper and dried leaves and
nitrogen-rich waste like vegetable
scrapes and food leftovers. This
will fasten the process of
decomposition.
Dig a pit to a depth of one feet and
broaden the size depending on the
amount of the organic waste
generated. Typically, a pit of 1 ft
deep by 2ft wide by 3ft long would
be suitable for a large household
of 5-6 members.
Close the area with gunny bags
and add scrap to it daily. The
decomposition process takes
about 4-5 weeks. Water the area
daily to speed up the process. You
can also begin sowing seeds and
growing plants after the initial two
weeks.
Make sure there are no utility lines
passing near the compost pit area.
Do not add any animal products
like meat, bones or dairy products
to the compost pit as it can attract
pests.
