Love composting! I am definitely going to get one going when we get a house, I had a really good pile going where we live now but some miserable old coots complained about it and I decided to not listen to their bullshit. I still throw all my seeds and things out into the woods though to let it recycle! :D
I go the faster route.. but I know it’s likely not the best. We do get the organic shellfish and other ingredient compost bags from Maine, those work really well for the garden! I’m actually going to get the pots going this year, and the bags here sound like a pretty good plan.
