FAQs

What can I compost in the Green Johanna?

You can compost all degradable kitchen waste, including cooked foods, meat, fish, and dairy, as well as garden waste.

How often should I turn the compost?

Ideally, turn the compost every few weeks using the aerator stick.

Where should I place the compost bin?

Choose a level location in a shaded or partially shaded area of your yard.

How do I know when the compost is ready?

The compost is ready when it has a dark, crumbly texture and earthy smell. It should be unidentifiable from the original materials.

What if the compost is too dry?

Add water to the compost and mix it in well.

What if the compost is too wet?

Add more 'brown' materials, like leaves or shredded paper, to absorb the excess moisture.

How do I remove the finished compost?

The Green Johanna has a bottom opening to remove the finished compost. Carefully open the hatch and scoop out the compost.

Troubleshooting

Compost smells bad.

Add more 'brown' materials (leaves, paper), turn the compost, and ensure proper ventilation.

Composting is slow.

Ensure a good mix of 'green' and 'brown' materials, turn the compost regularly, and check moisture levels.

Pests are present.

Ensure the lid is securely closed. Bury food scraps in the compost.

Compost is too wet.

Add more 'brown' materials to absorb excess moisture. Ensure proper drainage.
