Compost Tube

Here is another composting idea, brought to you by the community garden at the University of Memphis (the TIGUrS Garden). They are using plastic corrugated pipe with baffles bolted inside it as a medium-scale composter. A few months ago I was checking prices on this pipe, and it is actually VERY expensive. I like the idea of continuous composting, though.



Here is some of the above compost in action (with a generous amount of cotton burr compost mixed in).



Here is their cucumber trellis. Since I work nearby, I sometimes walk over and check on the progress. It is nice to get into a garden in the middle of the work day.
