Making a good compost requires the right Carbon-Nitrogen ratioright Carbon-Nitrogen ratio of the mixture. But most of the compostable household wastes don't have an ideal 25-30:1 ratio and we call them "greens" or "browns""greens" or "browns". And each of those has a different C:N ratio and that's why a different amount of each material is needed to achieve the same balancing effect. What are the Carbon-Nitrogen ratios of most common household "greens" and "browns"?
The C:N ratio is always some kind of average but I'd like to see some scale of strong "browns/greens", medium and week ones.
