A little note to composting: have you ever walked in the forest and thrust your hands  into the leafmulch-compost on the forest floor? Well, this is what I meant by a "Veneer" of compost, and this is what we want to create as a layer of compost in our garden beds, and, as you may know, the forest mulch smells good. Sprinkling water on the top of the veneer regularly will help it to decompose pretty fast. As in the forest, your veneer layer of compost will help to replenish the earth. Ciao, Frank
