If looked properly we can find that the waste from our houses and industries actually provides alternative to resources. Waste from kitchen and household can be turned into something as useful as compost. Today I am going to share about pot composting. It is a good solution to common household waste.

Pot Composting

 In this process, three pots are used.

1. First, segregate your household waste into dry and wet in your kitchen. Leftovers of food, fruit peels, and tea bags are wet waste whereas paper, plastic and packaging area dry waste.

2. Secondly, put both these wastes in two different containers in the kitchen. When the wet waste container is full, put its contents into the first compost pot.

3. Then add dry leaves of the same quantity as the waste and semi-composted material, buttermilk or cow dung to start with the decomposition process.

4. Turn the pile around every other day. Keep the pile at the right level of dampness. If it is too wet, add dry leaves and stir and if it is too dry add water and stir.

5. Once it is full, leave the pot open for 30-45 days for the composition to happen. Then move the semi-composted matter into a larger container or bin.

6. After two months the waste will convert into rich compost that can be used or sold as manure.
