– Browns (high C): dry leaves, paper, wood chips, straw
– Enter weight (kg) and reference C:N for each
2) Calculate ratio
– Click “Calculate C:N Ratio”
– View overall C:N and status (too high / too low / ideal)
3) See suggestions
– Get advice to add greens/browns and turning frequency
– Read best practices for moisture and aeration
🔎 Tips
– Target C:N is ~25–30:1; add greens if too high, browns if too low.
– Moisture target: “squeeze to form a ball; release, it crumbles”.
– Turn every 7–10 days to aerate and promote uniform decomposition.
