Take the items from your lunch that you would want to use as a part of a compost(preferably not one we discussed in class ) Do you think they would have more carbon content or nitrogen? And if you used them together in a compost, what would the overall content be, carbon or Nitrogen? Do you think this would make a good compost on its own? Why or why not?

OOC: List five lunch items and guess whether they are carbon concentrated or nitrogen based off of what we went over in class. Those can just be in a list. In a paragraph, tell us if the compost overall would be carbon or nitrogen rich and whether it would be a good compost on its own. These can be PMed me as per my homework regulations.

⚘ Option Two ⚘

Worth: 10 points

Located in Greenhouse #1 (Where we had class) there are enough crates of compost for each student to have their own. Pick a crate, label it with a card provided to you in front of the crate, and begin your work. For this task, you must use either your hands OR the spade next to the crate to dig in the compost and try to decipher what is IN this compost. It was freshly made, so no worries about any decomposition. Write down what you think is in the compost on the index card, and whether the compost is nitrogen rich or carbon rich. And oh, when you’re done—do me a solid and see that bucket of worms in the front of the room? Kindly grab some worms and place them in the compost---oh, and why don’t you water the composts, too, while you’re at it? Please and thank you!

OOC: OKAY so four posts for this to count for full credit. You can make up what kind of compost your character digs in—be creative and have fun! I don’t much care how you separate the tasks into posts, as long as all of the components Paul has asked for are there. Title your posts and PM them to me as per my homework regulations.

Save a few of your every-day wastes in a tin and place them in the recycle bin outside the garden. This will require only one post, but include at least five materials you have placed in the bin.

OOC: Post this post in Paul’s garden, assuming there is a bin there for the containers. <3 PM this post to me along with your homework.

This is due October 28th, 12 AM CST (so, the night of the 27th, but midnight technically the 28th
