Compost Better with Monty Monitor
Monty has taken all of their science-y knowledge, and distilled it into an easy-to-use, easy-to-understand system: a UFO-like stick that lives in your compost with Bluetooth connection to an app that monitors your compost, and offers helpful tips to improve it! I’ve been enjoying using the system for a while now.
Setting up my monty literally took SECONDS. It just sits in your compost and does the guesswork for you. If you’ve ever been confused by what makes a healthy compost, and what to do to amend your heap for an optimal environment, this monitor will be your best friend!
After having a few sludgy composts that we had to work hard to fix, it's been so interesting to monitor our compost and get a view into what's going on inside the bins.

From the outside my heap seemed to be doing its thing. But thankfully the data was able to tell another story. With a little research the basic learning was: - Way too much brown content! I was aiming for a 2:1 composition of brown to green, but its amazing just how much green that is when you squish it down and compare bucket to bucket! I've been collecting ever since, so hopefully the balance is better for the next attempt. - Way too dry! Those brown layers suck up the moisture. I just didn't add enough water to keep things moist as it heated up.
