Frustrated with the lack of garden supplies in the stores near me this time of year, I have started to compost indoors. I grow wheat grass for juicing, and the soil gets old. My plant food from the summer is depleted, there is no organic compost on the store shelves, and I had to do something.
I saw indoor composting bins, quite expensive, and decided to go on my own. I took a metal food prep pan (about 8" x 12") put the tired, old soil in it, ground up the remains of the last batch of grass in the blender with the scraps from an apple and a few carrot ends. I put it, along with my organic coffee grounds in the pan. I stir it each day, keep it warm, add well ground up sraps here and there and after several weeks I planted fresh wheat grass using it.
WOW did the wheat ever like it's new bed. Has anyone else ever tried something like this?
