passage 1
composting: nourishment for nature
plants require regular nourishment for healthy growth, and gain most of the nourishment from their surroundings. but humans can play a part in aiding their growth too. composting is a method of boosting plant growth and nourishment by adding a nutrient-rich mixture into the soil to enrich the soil with carbon and nitrogen.

almost any food item can be used to create compost. as much as 30 percent of household waste can be converted into compost. creating compost is an extremely easy process. all one needs to do is gather items such as table scraps, wood scraps, tealeaves, coffee beans, corncobs, eggshells, manure—an organic matter made from animal feces, and other similar items, and mix them well into the soil. plenty of sunlight, the right equipment, and a good compost bin can create a decent batch of compost. it serves as an excellent alternative for chemical fertilizers.

composting enriches the soil and prevents pollution. it also keeps the soil moist and prevents plants from contracting diseases. composting is a relaxing and fulfilling activity that even teenagers can attempt. it will not only give them immense joy to watch their plants grow beautifully, but also educate them about recycling waste products.

passage 2
the task of composting
though organic compost is beneficial for nurturing plants, the task of composting itself isn't easy. composting requires time and effort to compile the right mixture, and one has to be willing to work on making the compost every day. it is also important to have the right equipment and preserve the compost properly. there is always the risk of insects and rodents damaging the homemade compost.

additionally, the effort put into making the compost does not always take root. composting requires proper space and climatic conditions. cold or dry weather is not ideal for compost, unless one constantly keeps the pile moist. compost requires a lot of sunlight, which is not always available during winter. lack of sunlight hampers the decomposition of materials in the compost.

lastly, creating the right compost requires a trained hand and an expert's guidance. using wrong kitchen ingredients such as bone scraps, whole eggs, fatty foods, or oil in the compost may damage the plant. one should especially be cautious about using manure made from cat or dog feces in the compost to grow vegetables as it can contain bacteria that can cause diseases in the plant. nutrient imbalance in the compost could also affect the plants as too much of nitrogen or carbon could corrupt the soil.
