Скачать или смотреть Turn Compost Once with Less Effort, what turning means and why it can help

I seek to clear some air between the many versions you see about turning heaps. Likewise my new Compost book does this https://shop.charlesdowding.co.uk/pro...
It explains why so many composting statements are not true, and has much background information for more understandings.

Here you see the ergonomics of turning. How to turn a heap more easily, efficiently, and enjoyably!
JUST ONCE! I find no benefit from extra turns, because I'm not looking for 100% perfect looking Compost. I explain this in the video.

I find that turning a fascinating job, and with fascinating finds. As you see.
