Questions & Answers
The extent to which your compost can be penetrated is determined by its looseness. My compost pile was compact when I first used the aerator; I couldn't lift it up and out simply by winding it until it was level. So I gently lifted it out by back winding it until it was only a few inches long. Then I went down a few inches deeper and repeated the process until I reached the 2 foot deep bottom. Bringing the bottom of the pile to the top is simple and quick after working the pike. I'm not sure if this is the proper way to use it, but we really like how it mixes our compost piles.
The length of the wooden handle is approximately 5 inches.

This is useful for digging into a compost bin and bringing things to the surface. What I don't like about the product is that it's divided into two parts - the tool's handle and body, which are connected by a screw. The first (minor) issue is that the screw does not appear to be properly seated. The connection between the two parts is located at the top of the tool, which is more important/inconvenient. where I find myself reaching for the tool to gain an advantage - There are a couple of sharp edges on it. When I first used it, I accidentally cut myself. br>br>One thing I like about this product is that it comes in almost entirely plastic-free packaging (with the exception of a small piece at the bottom), which I appreciate.
I'm having trouble getting the tiny screw that holds the handle in place to go in. The tiny holes do not line up, and I am unable to get this to work because it is metal and has no give; I am extremely frustrated by this minor detail, which has rendered this entire purchase useless. Also, no contract information is available.
For my small garden, I make compost in a lidded bucket with holes. Instead of rolling the buckets to mix the contents, I can easily stir the compost with this aerator.
This aerator was used to aerate our compost bins, which also house redworms. The outcomes pleased me greatly.
This accomplishes precisely what I had hoped for.
Turning can be difficult.
It becomes extremely clogged, and when I turned it, it would not move. I was in desperate need of something, so I bought this, despite having little faith that it would work. Our composter has a bar inside that I thought would get in the way, but it actually helped us maneuver so that we could break up the clumps and can now - the fact that it's getting hotter - get some good turns in so that we can have enough compost to fertilize the plants during the summer. I'm getting close to being self-sufficient.
This subpod compost aerator does an excellent job of allowing worms to breathe in the compost. It's well-made and sturdy. The grip is pleasant to the touch. Because the tip is sharp, it comes with a piece of plastic covering it. To keep it from rusting, it's made of food-grade stainless steel. I keep it in my shed to keep it safe and dry.
