Do you know about composting thermometer?

Temperature is a key indicator of compost. Fertilizer will heat up? How long can it keep? How to influence mixture temperature? All of these are compost staff concerned. General heap after 3 & ndash; 5 days, begin to be microbes release heat, organic matter in pile slowly rising temperature, 7 & ndash; Eight days later in pile temperature rise sharply, up to 60 & ndash; High temperature 70 ℃, easy to cause in pile lack of moisture, make the microbial activity is abate, raw materials decompose completely. So during the composting, often should check in pile up, middle and lower parts of moisture and temperature changes. Check method, the compost can be used on the thermometer inserted in pile, in all parts, under the monitor. If the compost temperature 40 or 50 ℃, can infer compost composition contains enough nitrogen and moisture for the rapid growth of microorganisms. Read temperature, it is important to ensure that the thermometer deep inside compost, place the thermometer in a short while, the temperature stability after reading, and then move it to a new location ( From the top edge of the temperature of the position of the different depth) 。 Compost thermometer features: made from the tail pointed tail, easy to insert into the mixture; Easy reading; Stainless steel material.
