diagram illustrates the steps by which compost is recycled from organic waste in order to produce a natural garden

fertilizer

.

Overall

, there are approximately 5 basic steps in the process of making

fertilizer

at home from recycled organic waste matter, beginning with the preparation of an empty plastic

container

and ending with composted organic garden

fertilizer

. The first stage is to acquire a plastic

container

of approximately 2m3 that has several holes in the sides to allow air to flow in and out of the

container

.

Next,

organic materials

such

as food scraps, grass clippings, and newspaper are layered inside the

container

in approximately 15cm thick layers. In the following step, hot water and some form of nitrogen are added to the compost to assist in the composting process which follows. During

this

process, air will flow in and out of the air holes on the sides of the

container

. Approximately six months later, the composted material will be ready to be removed from the

container

and used in the garden as

fertilizer
