I keep hearing people say you should never compost meat. Honestly, if you want some truly weak compost, go right ahead and follow that rule. When I turn my compost piles, the bacteria get to work so fast they don't give the meat a chance to sit around. It just gets consumed. I have seen meat disappear in as little as three or four days. It can smell pretty bad, but you do it for the microbes. You might be surprised. A few years ago I found a roadkill deer. I dumped everything except the bones into the pile and buried the deer in leaves. The pile ate through the leaves like crazy for about two weeks, going through something like 9 cubic feet per day for the first week and maybe half that for the second. The deer was gone after the second week other than the hide, and that was gone by spring. It produced a fine batch of compost. #Composting #Gardening #GardeningTips #Hacks #Controversial #CompostLife #Homesteading
