first time compost pile maker here
I have created a 4x4x4 space. Two of them actually but I'm working on filling the first one.
On the bottom I put cardboard, potting soil, vines and weeds, kitchen scraps, and more potting soil. Then on top of that I raked up a bunch of leaves and dead grass and bark and twigs and yard debris.
I suspect I am missing nitrogen-rich material but I don't really have anything on hand. Should I piss on the pile? How often? Twice a week?
