Garden Soil Nutrients With Recycling Composting

Recycling composting processes are similar in some ways. Many people think of recycling as placing separate pieces of glass materials, paper plates, cups and plastic materials in their recycling bins, to be picked up at the kerb and transported to recycling factories where some of the materials will be reused to make new products.

However, when composting, you are recycling food materials you would normally use for fertilizer to provide nutrition for the soil to grow plants. The process of composting, is similar to recycling plant and animal material, and you can compost as often as you need nutrients for your garden soil, to grow organic plants, flowers, fruit and vegetables.

There are a number of different types of composting you can do, just as there are several ways to recycle. One type is vermicomposting, which is a method of using earthworms to break down the materials in the soil, to increase the number of natural nutrients for growing plants.

Feeders In Your Backyard With Wild Bird Food

Apart from the usual nuts and seeds, which are usually part of wild bird food, you can also find suet plugs for certain types of meat eating birds.

Alternatively, you can make your own suet, which is beef fat that must be molded into disks, for the birds to feed. You may need to find out which birds prefer which foods before making wild bird food, by watching the birds visiting your yard. If you can identify the birds, you can search for their food preferences online.

If you notice hummingbirds coming into your yard frequently, then you can make a little sugar water or gather some vegetable nectar for the birds to eat. For Jaybirds, peanuts or peanut kernels are the best, and doves and pigeons prefer to eat millet

If you are seeking to make hummingbird food yourself, then you can try sunflower seeds or pumpkin seeds to feed the birds. It is best not to bring together these seeds with honey, because honey will ferment and could spoil quickly before birds are able to eat the food.
