Compost in 40 gallon Containers for Container Gardening-Recycle your trash for compost
Hi! This is Going Organic. You can find our website at “www.goingorganic.weebly.com”! Today I am going to talk about composting.
It is winter time here in Central Florida. I am composting in containers to prepare for a container garden in the spring. I’ve drilled 3/8″ holes in the bottom of these 40 gallon containers. I’ve added oak leaves to the containers with shredded paper and cardboard from the home shredder, used coffee grounds from Starbucks, water from the fish pond, egg shells, cow manure, vegetable scraps.
All those old bills and junk mail you shred at home can be a carbon source for your compost. This is one more way to recycle and not send paper to the landfill.
Used coffee grounds are a good source of nitrogen. Once the grounds are used, their ph is close to neutral. So they are very safe for plants. I picked up this bag full of coffee grounds the other day. Starbucks has a recycling program for their coffee grounds. Anytime, you can walk in and ask for their used coffee grounds. They will pull the whole trash bag full of grounds out and double bag it for you. The other day, the server even carried it out to the car for me. I just want to say “Thanks!” to the Lake Mary Starbucks for all their free coffee grounds.
I’ve been using water from the fish pond, since it is used as liquid fertilizer in hydroponic systems. I have a page on my website on how to build an easy portable fish pond.
I save the egg shells from cooking, since tomatoes like calcium. I let them dry out overnight. Then I break up the eggshells into small pieces and add them to the compost.
Eventually I will substitute worm castings for cow manure. I didn’t start on my worm farm early enough to put it into this compost. The worm castings will provide much more nutritive value directly to the plant.
I had a lot of potatoe peals left over from Christmas dinner that I added to the containers a few days ago. Composting is a great way to recycle much of the waste that you usually take to the curb. Did you ever wonder how much of the trash in landfills is comprised of food waste. Well, according to the Department of Agriculture, it’s approximately 100 billion pounds every year. The average household alone ends up throwing out 14 percent of their food purchases.
Every few days, I dump the leaves into other containers to stir up all the leaves and increase the oxygen level in the mulch.
I put these large black garbage bags over the containers to accelerate the composting. This soil will be ready when all the leaves have broken down to the point where they can’t be recognized as leaves anymore. At that point, it should look like rich black soil.
So let me know what you think about the video. Also contact me at my website: “www.goingorganic.weebly.com”! I will keep you updated this coming spring on how well the compost turned out. Thanks for watching.

Urine Composting: Compost your Pee
Human urine is a great, natural, free source of Nitrogen for your soil or compost.
Flushing your urine after each pee, would waste thousands of gallons of water per year at home. Then, your valuable urine is not only lost, but it goes to a chemical waste center where they must use chemicals on all that water you flushed, since within the sewage pipes it has all gotten mixed with stool.
To minimize the water shortages seen in so many communities, an easy way to save water is by NOT flushing away your urine. Using it for your compost or garden is an extra benefit. (If you just let it sit in the toilet bowel until you have a bowel movement, then the urine can start to smell up your bathroom, and your garden or compost would be missing out on a great source of liquid nitrogen.)
Try it…. it is much easier, cleaner, and normal than you might think.
