Welcome to all things plants, evanac44!
Where do you garden?

Truth to tell, I've never seen anaerobic compost.
Nor do I bother about turning my piles.

I pile my debris in the veggie patch where the soil is especially poor.
After piling stuff on for a year or two...

I start a new pile with the top layer of uncomposted material and rake the compost smooth... But... I don't put much effort into the raking... If I have compost a foot deep in places... I don't care, should prevent weed seed germination... And as I said... The soil is poor.

Anyway... My method is called cold composting, and the method to the madness is that there is more end product with far less work, than with typical aerobic composting
