My Way Of Composting - Trial And Error Way

Source: Composting 101(thistle.co)

   I have been reading and watching YouTube videos on composting and gathering ideas and knowledge. Since I started composting, no harm researching on it.

   Most videos use outdoor compost bins made of wood or pallets to form cubicles to store browns and greens. For home composting like me, space is a big constrain and since I prefer to put the compost bin outside my house, most setup in the videos are not suitable for me.

   However the takeaways from these videos are:

• Carbon to Nitrogen ratio (30:1) is more accurate compared to 2 parts brown and 1 part green. I think I would just go by gut feel or whatever I an find. 
• Whatever browns and greens you throw into compost will eventually be decomposed and become compost. Even meat and cooked food(This may only applies with compost bins on ground soil, not cement floor). Is whether you can wait or not.
• Compost requires Carbon(Browns), Nitrogen(Greens), Air and Water. Any missing component will slow down or stop decomposition.
• Ideally, base of compost have a thick layer of browns as base. Add greens and cover with browns. Can compact the browns and green to have more space for more. If excessive liquid is supposed to leak out from the bottom.
• The browns and greens need to stay moist, not wet. Best to have holes to release excessive liquid to prevent too much moisture and becomes smelly. 
• Rain water is best to moist the compost materials.
• Can add a little bit of citrus fruit peels like oranges and lime. Too acidic prevents decomposition.
• Use a variety of materials to provide different nutrients such as banana peels for potassium, neem leaves for antibacterial effects.
