If the compost has not matured within a year, most likely, mistakes were made during its preparation.
We'll tell you about the most common mistakes gardeners make when preparing compost.
How to speed up the maturation of compost
Firstly, the compost should not be in the sun. Rapid maturation is only possible in the shade.
Secondly, do not allow it to dry out. The compost should always be moist.
Thirdly, incorrect laying. Simply laying in layers is not enough, they need to be mixed.
It is advisable to add a little of last year's compost to the brown layer.
The green layer should be about twice as big as the brown one.
You can also add any remaining fertilizers that may not survive the winter to the compost.
