Compost Orb w/ 8 Roller Base - 50 GAL
The spherical shape of the CompoSpin has the lowest surface to volume ratio of any shape, allowing impressive retention of internally generated heat. The dark color absorbs heat from the sun, promoting faster decomposition.
The sphere is also structurally sturdy and is able to spin evenly on its propriety base (with 8 ball bearing style rollers) in any direction, randomly and effectively blending the contents to maintain consistency throughout. This unit has been designed to be rolled to the location where it is needed – for either filling or dumping.
The patented air induction tubes that face inward provide an influx of oxygenated air into the center of the active pile, while assisting in the break up and mixing of materials as the unit rotates – mitigating clump formation.
Large, circular access portal allows for easy dumping of scraps or harvesting of finished compost. No sharp edges minimize risk to pets, children and wildlife. Secure lid and off-the-ground design effectively keeps critters out. Developed for year-round use. Orb mixing is accomplished by EITHER spinning on its base OR rolling around the yard.
PLEASE NOTE: This unit has the ENHANCED BASE STAND WITH 8 BALL BEARING ROLLERS.
- Tips on Usage
- Specifications
- Shipping Details
- When selecting a site for placement, look for an area with level, permeable ground and one that receives ample sun in winter and partial shade in summer
- All tumblers benefit by the addition of several handfuls of humus from an active pile or a few scoops of compost starter
- Rotate the unit in place by spinning on its patented base, featuring 8 built-in, ball bearing rollers. May also be rolled around the yard to insure proper aeration – the churning movement provides the beneficial microorganisms with the necessary oxygen to break down the organic waste.
- Maintain ample moisture levels inside – do not allow active pile to dry out or microbe activity will slow
- Stop adding materials when unit is 3/4 full so that contents can continue to move and mix freely
- Apply finished compost to the garden 3-4 weeks before plants so that the decomposed materials have time to integrate and stabilize within the soil.
