      Comments about Super Hot® Compost Starter:

      Was very useful in making my compost quickly. I use it every year. I put leaves, grass clippings, kitchen scraps, compost maker and dirt. I layer it and cover. The sun heats it up and I turn it over every couple of weeks. Work fantastic!

                I have been using this product for years in my two composters. It is easier to use now as it is in one bag now rather than two. The final product is the most attractive, loamy, pleasant smelling mulch one could ask for. I place the mulch on all my gardens.
