Palen, Jr Outlines The Reasons To Begin Using Compost For Your Garden  You can buy compost from your local nursery or generate it at home by using leaves, grass clippings, and kitchen wastes like vegetable and fruit excesses to the compost bin. This bin functions as a silo, which houses decaying and fermenting organic matters until it is ready to be used in your garden.

  2. Benedict T. Palen, Jr Outlines The Reasons To Begin Using Compost For Your Garden While most people know that compost is a great thing to use, here’s outlining all the reasons why it is so. Benedict T. Palen,Jrhighlights all the reasons to begin using compost for your garden. Compost has a good quality of humus While breaking down, most composts have a certain amount of humus content in it. Humus happens to be the byproduct of the compost after decaying is done. It has nutritional content, but not nitrogen. The key benefit associated with hummus is that it can absorb water. Healthy gardens need compost to gain nutritional diversity. Besides, humus is the main component of the topsoil.

  3. Benedict T. Palen, Jr Outlines The Reasons To Begin Using Compost For Your Garden Porosity and soil structure comes from compost Benedict T. Palen, Jrsays that soil structure comes from the right mix of the organic particles (humus and compost) with inorganic particles (clay and sand). Good soil is crumbly enough with air pockets to allow easy farming. Compost can bind to sandy soil, creating a condition where it can absorb more nutrients and moisture. It can also bind to clayey soil particles to create air pockets to let the nutrients and moisture to penetrate into these type of soils. So, compost can improve the soil conditions, regardless of the type of soil where you do the farming.

  4. Benedict T. Palen, Jr Outlines The Reasons To Begin Using Compost For Your Garden The roots of the plants love compost The wonderful soil structure that can be created by compost lets the roots take up water and nutrients effectively. It helps the roots to spread despite the constraints of the dense soils. So, the health of your garden remains well-maintained. Composts have the ability of moisture retention Studies have shown that adding a pound of compost to about a hundred pounds of soil can increase the water retention ability of the soil by four gallons. If the amount of compost is increased to five gallons, the same amount of soil would hold twenty-five gallons of water. You can increase the moisture retention ability of any kind of soil with compost.

  5. Benedict T. Palen, Jr Outlines The Reasons To Begin Using Compost For Your Garden Compost brings down the stormwater runoff Compost functions like sponges, and thus, it lets fewer amounts of rainwater to enter the storm drains. Runoff such as excess irrigation and rainwater have a tendency to pick up garbage, pesticides, grass clippings, and other types of pollutants that can damage the sea life when they end up in the ocean. Therefore, you are not only saving your garden, but also the surrounding water bodies through composting. So, as you can see, compost can do a world of good to your garden. Thus, you should start making your own compost from today, if you have not done it already.
