  These days, many people are learning to make their very own compost with regard to their plants and gardens. The challenge is that a lot of people tend not to know how to create the compost the right way. In this article we will be covering a few things you should know before you begin your compost pile.
  
  The first thing you will need to consider when it comes to your compost is what you can add to your compost. If you want to have a really good compost pile, you should pay attention to some basic rules. First we will go over what you might add to your compost pile.
  
  Section 21 Housing Act ...Just about any kind of lawn item like grass clipping, hedge trimmings and even leaves can be a good base for your compost. The clippings and such will be rich in nutrients, making it perfect for fertilizer. You can also add weeds to your compost. The weeds will have no difficulty breaking down in your compost but you need to be sure that there are no seeds.
  
  The next phase is to discover items that you can add from your kitchen. Used coffee grounds and also tea bags are great for the compost. After you prepare a pot of coffee, instead of throwing the grounds away, add it to your compost. When you've got left over peels or skin or worn out leaves from vegetables, use them for your compost. You can use any leftovers from any type of vegetable. Even fruit and vegetables that seem to be wilted and moldy can be used for your compost pile.
  
  If you have soil from your old crops, you can make use of it for your compost as well. When you are moving a plant from one container to another, you can take the soil and mix it with your compost. The soil is going to be valuable in giving important nutrients to your compost.
  
  There are of course substances that you should never add to your compost. The first thing you will never include are any kind of dead animals or fish. It happens to be known that some people add their pets droppings into the compost. Even though including horse or cow manure into your compost is common, pet feces may contain elements that may not be beneficial to your compost. Moreover, don't ever add a plant that has recently died to your compost. Introducing a recently dead plant to your compost can cause problems if, for example the plant had a disease. Adding meat, bread or any oily foods is also not recommended.
  
  Having garden compost is wonderful for the potted plants and garden. Doing these steps, you will have a powerful nutrient compost that is going to make your plants grow healthy and strong. You should also ensure that the compost is mixed at least once a week for it to be even.
