Organic gardeners can create odorless compost indoors using modern bins and composting methods.
No red worms are required.
Indoor composting is nothing new to organic gardeners.
However, not every gardener is inclined to become a worm farmer.
Worms are sensitive to changes in their environment, and worms can escape from their vermicompost bins.
Furthermore, the process of separating finished compost from living red worms is tricky and time-consuming.
Gardeners can use modern indoor composting bins or composting machines to turn waste products into soil-enriching humus.
These bins are so efficient that the homeowner wont detect any odors during the composting process.
A fan and a sprinkling of baking soda ensure that odors from anaerobic composting processes dont take hold.
Within two weeks, a red indicator light notifies the gardener that finished humus awaits him.
The bokashi method relies on anaerobic decomposition, so excluding oxygen is helpful.
When the bucket is full, allow the contents to ferment for two weeks.
