How to use jute in composting?

 

“But…” you might think, “What about all those pests that will come to get the composting matter?”  I’m glad you thought of this. We can use a jute (burlap, hessian) sack, bag or sheet along with some dirt and mulch to cover the food scraps. Yes, you can simply use jute bags in lieu of non-biodegradable plastic.

Jute is also composable by itself just like egg shells or the melon peels which means that you can sleep easy knowing that you are not contributing to the pollution or harmful clogging of our environment.  Hence jute is highly recommended for composting purposes. It is incredibly easy and hassle-free to compost with jute bags while eliminating plastics.

You have a pot or several pots that you have to prepare for planting or seeding. Take all natural jute pouch that can fit into the pot – fill it with organic food scraps. Close the pouch with the drawstring.  Take the pot, fill the bottom with mud, insert the pouch as-is into the pot, layer the top with some dried leaves, mulch and put a top layer of potting soil or mud. Sprinkle some water and put it out.

In about two weeks time (if the weather is warm) the pot is ready with rich, organic composted soil. Mix the soil well and transplant your seedling or plant. There is no mess, no waste and no need to purchase composted soil. You can use this method of using jute drawstrings for individual pots, for staged transplanting, different sizes of pots, balcony gardens, small yards or for general potted plants.
