If I start my pile wrong, is it salvageable?

I'm happy to report that after dumping it all out, drilling 50+ holes in the side of the can, and layering it back in with brown matter, it's definitely looking like compost! I stirred it around yesterday and it smelled nice and earthy.

Good to hear Moonshadow. I just came from shopping at the local bulk club and it's certainly the season for your recovery.

Everyone sing along: It's starting to look a lot like compost ...
