[QUOTE="clbarclay, post: 3126454, member: 6671"] There is a interesting thought about oxygen and the rate of organic material decomposition relating to compost. I will have a lot of tree prunings this winter. The easy solution to 'dealing' with them is to push up and burn, but it seems a waste of raw material that could be composted. The conventional method seems to be chip the wood fine, keep mixing with high N material and aerating till it's ready. A rather cost and energy intensive, short term option. Leaving branches just piled up is a very long term option. Has anyone found an effective middle way to compost all the wood that is too small for wood burners? For example, any idea how long it would take to compost chunks of wood up to 2" diameter mixed with FYM? [/QUOTE]
