Winter Sowing
Anaerobic Explosion????
Hi, all, I began a layered compost area August 2015 with the hope to plant into it by spring of 2016. I put cardboard, veggie only kitchen scraps, rabbit manure, blood meal, bone meal, and topped with fresh wheat straw. Over the winter it was watered, worms were added, and it was lightly turned with a pitch fork. Recently I've had to remove more and more spots of what looks like a bad growths, and if I wait too long before removing them, they grow spores. Have I made a accurate diagnosis? I really valued this south facing bed as I've built it to 1,394 sq ft and was counting on time and patience to season it into an great spring-summer growing bed. Now I"m really worried! Your advice is very much appreciated!!
