Hi,

My wife and I are starting our compost journey, but we are finding it difficult to decide what size composter we would need. I’m leaning toward 740l (cubic meter size) for the heating aspect of it but I can’t seem to find one that has uv resistant plastic or anything else in our price range (we live in Ireland if anyone has any suggestions).

We are creating around 100 sq ft of vegetable gardens, and would ideally like to create enough to be self-sufficient.

What would be the smallest size composter that could generate enough compost in a reasonable amount of time. I don’t see the point waiting an extra two months or something for compost just cuz the bin is too small to generate the necessary heat.

I’m trying to learn more about composting. We don’t have a large yard but we are trying to dedicate as much as we can to plants and vegetables. We have a separate flower bed (70sq ft) and no grass (we’re growing ground cover. Thanks so much in advance.
