Your compost piles will cook faster if you turn then occasionally. The point being that fire needs oxygen. Now you don’t want a real flame but you do want it to generate heat. That is what turns it from manure to fertilizer. When it is cooked, it is nearly sterile. No germs. Amazing how God creates isn’t it?
