Now boys if you want your compost heap to rot down really quickly and produce some top-notch compost here's a little tip for you.
Collect your own urine in a bottle, pour onto the heap immediatly and mix into the top 6" layer.
It seems that there are chemicals only present in MALE urine that speeds up the breakdown of plant material. Sorry ladies but ours just won't do!!

Thanks for the tip Eileen.
I have two grandsons (6 and 10) and our house has just one bathroom. Next time they are here and a line forms at the bathroom door I can tell them to water gramma's compost pile. I have a feeling they will take me up on it too.
