Compost Orb w/ Ring Stand - 50 GAL
The spherical shape of the CompoRoll has the lowest surface to volume ration of any shape, allowing retention of internally generated heat. The dark color absorbs heat from the sun, promoting faster decomposition.
The sturdy sphere is able to tumble in any direction, randomly and effectively blending the contents to maintain consistency throughout. Designed to be rolled to the location where it is needed – for either filling or dumping. Ring base hold orb in place when not in use.
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 effectively keeps critters out. Designed for year-round use.
PLEASE NOTE: Mixing is accomplished by rolling orb around the yard. Basic ring stand does not possess glide 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 by rolling in any direction every few days 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.
