The use and throw lifestyle has benefited corporate giants but has caused much harm to the climate. If you wish to recycle, reduce, and reuse then composting leaves is a great place to begin. Not only does it help in growing a healthy garden, but it also utilizes the leaves that would otherwise be considered as waste. This organic process can make the soil more fertile, diminish the strain on landfills, reduce the porosity of the soil, and create a protective cover over the garden. The most important thing in leaf composting is the balance of nitrogen and carbon.
The key to composting leaves is patience. For an organic leaf compost, you require organic materials such as grass clippings or fruit and vegetables peel. If you do not have the time to sort through the trash, the easier way is to make leaf mulch which is just a mix of leaves and water. The latter helps the soil retain its moisture. However, if your aim is to give your plant some nutrients and keep them safe from pests, you need leaf compost. Rich garden soil will enhance the plant’s health and the wait will be worth it.
