This year I did a little experiment. I took one of those Costco rotisserie chicken containers, cleaned it out, and poked two holes in the top of the plastic dome. This was done by heating up a screwdriver over a gas flame of the stove and then I simply pushed it through the plastic. I then sprinkled quit a few lettuce seeds in some potting soil that I placed in the bottom container, watered in, and then put the top on. It was then placed under covers of a square foot garden box. I literally did nothing. I didn’t add water, I didn’t vent, nothing. After a few weeks it all germinated. This is what it now looks like after I have been separating into individual little plugs and placing them in a square. So far, i think I’ve added 20 heads of lettuce, with at least that many more still to plant.
For those interested in learning how to compost, I now have a recored 75 minute class available on my blog. You can learn more about it here: https://thewealthyearth.store/products/3
