C:N Ratio — Sirta GuushaThe C:N Ratio — Key to Successنسبة الكربون للنيتروجينUwiano wa C:N
Compost wuxuu u baahan yahay isku-dheelitir saxan ah oo u dhexeeya kaarboon (C, walxaha bunni qalalan) iyo nitrogen (N, walxaha cagaarka qoyan). Ratio ku habboon waa 30:1 (C:N). Aad u badan N: ur xun oo ammonia ah. Aad u badan C: si tartiib ah ayuu u kacaa. Compost needs balanced carbon (C, brown dry materials) and nitrogen (N, green wet materials). Target a 30:1 C:N ratio. Too much N: smells of ammonia. Too much C: decomposes very slowly. الكمبوست يحتاج توازن الكربون (مواد جافة) والنيتروجين (مواد خضراء). 30:1 مثالية. Mboji inahitaji uwiano wa C:N 30:1.
- Bunni (Brown / C-high) — caws qalalan, caleemo qalalan, korog (sawdust), waraaqo, dad (300–500 C:N).Browns (high C) — dry grass, dry leaves, sawdust, cardboard, straw (300–500 C:N).البني — قش وأوراق جافة ونشارة (300–500 C:N).Kahawia — nyasi kavu, machujo (300–500).
- Cagaar (Green / N-high) — qashinka khudaarta, caws cusub, digo, qashinka jikada, digirta (15–20 C:N).Greens (high N) — vegetable scraps, fresh grass, manure, kitchen waste, legume residues (15–20 C:N).الأخضر — قشور الخضار والسماد والقصاصات (15–20).Kijani — taka za mboga, samadi (15–20).
