We recently bought a "ComposTumbler" and in anticipation, I've been saving veggie scraps, peanut shells, etc. for several weeks. But by the time we got it assembled (it wasn't hard to put together, but we were busy with other things)... well, it's now Oct. 2. I'm in Central New Jersey - Zone 6.
Should I get a head start for next year and begin making compost now? It would be nice to have compost ready in say, May. Or, should I just throw away my bucket of scraps and wait until next spring to start?
Thanks for any advice.
