Im new here, is this right?
So ive been lurking this sub for 3 months now. 1 month before I bought my tumbler and 2 months since.
Ive followed every tip and direction ive seen on here (yes.... including "THAT one") and it seems like my first chamber is ready after only two months. Its hot, spongey and smells like dirt. Was a little too wet and had alot of fruit flies two weeks ago so I added some hardwood smoker pellets to dry it out and broke up the big mud chunks that clumped together while tumbling. I tumbled every 3 days and opened it up today to see the results and it looks good to me. This is my first time ever composting, but after reading this sub I feel like just over 7 weeks isn't nearly long enough.... but maybe its because its such a small batch (maybe 2 cu ft).
Should I keep adding to this? Should I use it? Should I let it sit a little longer and work on the 2nd chamber? All your help and adviceb has gotten me to this point, so im not going to stop using it now!!!
