Transform your yard waste and kitchen scraps into healthy, finished compost faster with Medina Compost Starter—a natural microbial blend formulated to energize the composting process from day one. Whether you’re composting at home, on a farm, or in a community garden, this easy-to-use solution introduces the beneficial microbes and nutrients needed to kickstart decomposition and produce rich, organic matter that improves soil health and plant vitality.

 

By balancing the microbial population and stimulating biological activity, Medina Compost Starter helps break down organic material quickly, reduce odors, and create an ideal environment for the production of dark, earthy compost that’s loaded with life.

 

Key Features:

 

  • Contains a proprietary mix of beneficial microbes, enzymes, and nutrients to accelerate the breakdown of organic material.
  • Supports aerobic decomposition, reducing the foul smells often associated with composting.
  • Works in all composting systems—piles, bins, tumblers, or large-scale operations.
  • Easy-to-use granules that mixes into your compost pile with water.
  • Made from natural ingredients—safe for children, pets, and pollinators.

 

*HomeandGardenSupply.com always recommends reading the entire product label before use, and following all necessary safety precautions, mixing instructions and proper application methods.

Areas of Use:

Application:
Step 1: Dilute the Product: Mix 1/2 ounce of Medina Compost Starter with 1 gallon of water. This solution will help evenly distribute beneficial microbes throughout your compost pile. FYI: Not all ingredients will dissolve; some ingredients are used as a carrier agent in the formula.
Step 2: Apply to Compost: Pour the solution directly onto your compost pile, bin, or tumbler. Be sure to apply it over the surface area and into the layers for best coverage.
Step 3: Turn or Mix the Pile: After applying, turn or stir the compost to help distribute the microbes and bring in oxygen. This step is key to encouraging aerobic decomposition and faster breakdown.
Step 4: Keep Moist, Not Soaked: Maintain a moisture level similar to a wrung-out sponge. Add water as needed during dry conditions to keep microbial activity thriving.
Step 5: Reapply as Needed: Reapply the Compost Starter every 1 to 2 weeks, especially when adding new materials like kitchen scraps, leaves, or grass clippings. This helps maintain an active and balanced microbial population.
