What a great idea. I especially loved the 2nd video "What is compost"... did you notice how Ed can't stop himself from grabbing handfuls of his compost? It's almost like an addiction! Seriously, it makes for a convincing argument that compost is not rotting garbage.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15257330.post-7335659579723298172007-11-05T23:07:00.000-05:002007-11-05T23:07:00.000-05:00Gina, What?

Just copy the embed code and paste it into a post. <BR/><BR/>Adam, adding non-organic food scraps is probably a lot more "organic" than some of the products out there that are marked organic. Good luck!<BR/><BR/>Ed, thanks for answering Adam in my absence.

When I refer to "organic" things that can be composted, what I mean are things that once were alive--such as an apple or grass clippings--versus things that were never alive--such as a rock or a plastic bag.<BR/><BR/>Short answer: of course you can compost scraps from "non-organic" fruits and vegetables.Ed Bruskehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12217850970833353800noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15257330.post-40595228428738711882007-10-29T15:52:00.000-04:002007-10-29T15:52:00.000-04:00Anthony, Ed talks in his video about adding food s...Anthony, Ed talks in his video about adding food scraps to the compost. Would it be considered organic compost if you added non-organic food scraps (vegetables from the grocery) to your compost?

And, I don't know who this guy Ed Bruske is but I liked him a lot more than Paul James who is a little to corny for my taste. I learned a few new things from the videos. For example, I had no idea you could compost dryer lint! We have a garbage bag full in my basement as we speak!Ginahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04119471756261855850noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15257330.post-66702409422354230462007-10-27T00:33:00.000-04:002007-10-27T00:33:00.000-04:00Ed, thanks for visiting.

Hope you don't mind. <BR/><BR/>And Paul James is the host of Gardening By The Yard on HGTV.

I guess I'll have to check out Paul James and find out why I'm no him.Ed Bruskehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12217850970833353800noreply@blogger.com
