We are maximizing every.single.area of our yard for our garden.

I had my beans, peas and cukes planted and secured from crazy chickens and then realized I had 9 more squash plants that needed full sun and decided to expand this garden out to hold them.

We also planted our tomatoes and instead of potting up the tomatoes and peppers we put them in big totes with our compost mix. The plants obviously took off and the root system was so big since it could actually spread out.

Why does a compost heap get hot? + the secret ingredient

A compost heap will get hot as microorganisms break down organic matter. As microorganisms digest the organic matter the exothermic reaction heats up the pile. The compost pile itself acts like a blanket to keep the heat in and can quickly reach temperatures of 170 degrees Fahrenheit.

The basic reason compost heaps heat up is because of the activity of the microorganisms that break down the organic material in your compost. As they chew up and break down the green and brown material, they use up oxygen and release heat. This heat gets trapped in your compost pile and gradually warms up.
