I have a compost heap in my front and one in my backyard. The one in the frontyard is under a pine tree and when I turn it , it is full of fat curly maggots. Is this good or bad? The one in the backyard has only ants. As I am in the desert they are both heating up very well and I get compost in a very short time.
By the way, those of you who remember, I was the one with the accidental cantaloupe plant. It ended rather sad. The one cantaloupe which developed got big but never completely ripe and then it looked like the plant died. I took it off and ate it, but it was not really sweet yet. It just grew in a bad location where it would not get enough sun, it was partly under a tree.Maybe I give it another try next year in a better location.
