I'm no Monty (my idol!) but I've learnt a few things so far by learning from others and latest scientific research (yes I'm a Geek and do read far too many academic papers!) and carrying out my own experiments.
So I'm sharing those Gardening Tips & Hacks so you too can benefit from them, and share further with others.

So what is the recipe for that organic, vegan, compost tea? And why you'll never buy again those chemical fertilisers from those evil corporations that rule our food systems today and do so much long-term damage to our planet, and to you!
Hack #3

Seriously hot composting.
-
There are so many reasons why you should make your own, good quality compost…
Better for the planet: No waste collection or transport involved, no packaging.
Better for your garden and you: you know what goes in (and so what comes out!)
Better quality compost: Peat-free, full of nutrients, good moisture retention.
Better for your wallet: even with the Basic option below you could easily make >1,000Kg of compost per year
I know there are other ways to make good compost. I also know why people fail to make compost.
That’s why I recommend the easiest next step for urban gardeners: -
Produce organic, homemade compost in as little as 30 to 90 days!
Space-saver: less than 1 sqm needed
Kick-start your composting, when running at 40 to 60°c it is 32 times faster than traditional cold composting (and it often runs over 100°c so yet faster)
Compost all garden and all kitchen waste, inc cooked & raw food & leftovers
Insulating walls lock in the naturally produced heat generated by the bacterial process
No turning, no tumbling, no accelerators and no external power source required
Reduce spend on paid for local council green waste collections
Learn how hot composting works.
