Product information
Open Compost Heaps Build a circular or rectangular heap 1 metre (3 feet) wide in the normal fashion. Add a 15 cm (6 inch) layer of material to be composted (grass cuttings, weeds, soft hedge clippings, etc) then sprinkle on 60 g (approximately 2 oz) of Vitax Compost Maker. Continue to build the heap adding further Compost Maker for each 15 cm layer of compost material. While open heaps will compost successfully, Vitax Compost Maker works best if the heap is kept warm and moist by covering the top with a polythene sheet. Compost Bins and Plastic Sacks Fill the compost bin or plastic sack with the material to be composted mixing in 120 g (4 oz) of Vitax Compost Maker whilst filling.
