Others say...
"Fun and Informative!" This book is an easy, entertaining, read. It has great information about what to compost, why compost and describes various types of composters along with their benefits and drawbacks. It also offers great practical advice on improving your soil, where to find compostable materials, and where to locate your composter. This is a good choice for beginners and those who just want to learn more about composting, I would highly recommend this book. "A great start" I very much enjoyed this book because it laid out the basics for the beginner, explained a small bit of the science, gave the list of do's and don'ts, and didn't get too technical for me. I really wanted to begin composting and had no idea where to start because there were so many options. This book helped me decide which was the best of the choices for my lifestyle, yard size, and abilities. Well worth it for the beginner looking for information. "Easy Guide to Composting" If people are still buying it after all these years one would think it of value. "Let it Rot!" This was a christmas present which he has alot of enjoyment reading. "Good basic information" Sadly, composting has a bit of a bad reputation some places. Many people imagine that you have to wear Birkenstocks and take part in anti-globalization marches, grow your facial hair and bathe infrequently to compost. Nothing could be farther from the truth! According to most gardeing experts, amending one's soil is just about the most important thing one can do to ensure the health and beauty of a garden. Composting can be an inexpensive, quick and simple way to improve the soil, and it cuts down on the waste taken off to garbage dumps. Let it Rot! Gives clear, well-written help on understanding how composting works, how you can set up your own composting system, and pitfalls to avoid. After you follow the instructions and see your garden blossom as never before, you'll understand: You don't need to be a hippy to compost your scraps!

What our customer's say! "The classic book!", I have never tried composting before, so I wanted the big picture. I researched online and this seems to be the undisputed classic book on the subject. It seems to tell ALL you need to know to manage your composting, and in as few words as possible. "Beginning Composters (this is a must have!)", This book is a quick crash course on composting. I learned things about composting that I never new before. The other great thing, it is an easy to read book! Totally satisfied! "Stinky subject good book!", I bought this for my husband as he went crazy on composting. I read it as well. And it provided more info. A must read for anyone wanting to start or even seasoned rotters. Good book to leave on the table gets lots of funny looks "Creating the best garden ever starts at the bottom", Composting, in case you aren't terribly familiar with it yet, is simply the practice of allowing waste matter to rot and decompose until it's fit to be tilled right into the soil. However, while the basic concept is as old as mother nature and often very easy to execute, it also helps to know more about it. What materials should you compost, and which should you avoid? Do you have to worry about animals or flies in your compost? How do you make sure your compost will turn into dirt and not a slimy, stinky sludge? While nearly every gardening book these days has a section on composting and most of these are enough to get you by, Stu Campbell's Let It Rot! is an entertaining, folksy and in-depth take on the art that will see you through nearly any foreseeable difficulty. I was certainly able to successfully compost with the simpler directions in other books, but there's information in here I wish I'd had back when I first started. For instance, now I know the cobweb-like stuff that I feared was mold was the natural activity of Actinomycetes, a part-bacteria, part-fungus organism that aids decomposition in certain parts of a compost pile. Mr. Campbell's book also introduces a great many different types of compost piles and composters that you can use, depending on what you're trying to accomplish, what area you have to work with, or what you're trying to decompose. He also suggests many ways to use compost in and around your garden, and how to get the most out of it. I'm glad I picked up Mr. Campbell's book, because I learned an incredible amount of new material! "Let it Rot book", Great book for those who have a compost system going. We are on Cape Cod and recycle everything! This book tells us how to compost everything. ![]()
Read this reviews before You buy... "Total novice, but the pile is coming along", This book is my first on composting, and while it didn't give me the desire to do it, it certainly gave me a great start in figuring it out. It seems to be well worth the read so far. "I'll be a pro at composting by the end of the season", This is a great, clear cut, interesting and fun-to-read book! Stu Campbell is able to take what, to newcomers, can be a daunting task and not only present us with the basics to feel comfortable but he also translates some of the scientific "mumbo-jumbo" of how and why compost works into layman's terms. He includes real "recipes" and approaches to try as well as suppling a list (though not nearly complete) of good materials to compost as well as what NOT to use. A short "troubleshooting" chapter called "Things You Might Worry About a Little" is a bit over the top for beginners but is part of what makes this book valuable for the seasoned composter. Let It Rot! is a not-to-technical, well-written, easy-to-read guide that takes the "yuck" out of your composting ideas! Perfect for beginners and a great refresher for near professional composters. "It's An Artform", There's more to composting than just sticking a bunch of dead things in a pile and waiting for it to rot - although that will work. It can be a virtual art form, and this book proves it. From building a compost container to adding the ingredients, this book leaves out nothing. Handy tips on speeding up the decomposition, encouraging worms, creating leaf-mold, using it once you've made it. You'll never look at an apple core quite the same way again. In this day and age with the emphasis placed heavily on recycling, this book provides heaps of how-to's in getting the most out of your waste. "many years", This book has been available for so long that it really should be considered a classic. It's great for beginners and helpful to anyone interested in techniques for composting. "The home gardener's guide to composting.", A relaxed easy-going treatment of a time-honored garden practice. It makes good sense to learn how to create compost by recycling the many waste materials readily available around your home. ![]() |
