Tui In-ground Composter

Directions for use

1. Remove the Tui In-ground Composter from the box.
   Connect the two sections together, ensuring they click into place and are secure.
2. Choose a position for your in-ground composter, preferably in the middle of your garden bed.
3. Dig a hole approximately 45cm deep and 20cm wide.
   Bury the in-ground composter in the soil leaving the flared section exposed.
4. In the base of the in-ground composter, place a bedding of pre-moistened strips of newspaper, leaf matter, straw and compost.
5. Place food scraps inside in-ground composter. Fruit and vegetable waste, tea bags, coffee grounds and crushed egg shells are all good sources of organic matter. Do not put citrus, onions, salad dressing or vinegar in your in-ground composter.
6. Worms from your garden will travel back and forth through the feeding holes, composting your waste and delivering nutrients directly back into the garden.

Your Tui In-ground Composter will provide additional nourishment for the worms already in your garden. To further increase performance, Tiger Worms can be added. You can buy them from hardware stores, garden centres or online.

Adding leaf compost to your in-ground composter every so often will help with oxygen circulation, which is important for composting.
