Compost Calculator

Okay all you fellow eco-zealots, we all know compost is good.  Now take it up a notch (sorry, Emril) and make sure that you're getting the most out of your composting efforts.

Choose up to 4 materials from the drop down list and enter a cubic foot measurement for them. Press TAB. The Total Carbon:Nitrogen ratio for your mix will appear.  It's just that easy.  

Aim for a total carbon to nitrogen ratio of 30. (25-30 is good. 20-40 is OK.)
