That doesn't sound easy to me either. But yes, you could have dug the citrus peels directly into the ground, just not right under the trees. You could have chosen a spot away from the citrus trees. French gardeners do trench composting. They dig a trench and throw everything in and cover with a bit of earth and that works fine too. Dear Sharon:

Thanks. Composting can be kind of intimidating, the more I learn about it, but the plastic barrel sounds easy.....until it's time to dig out the finished product. Having space for it is another concern, hence the idea to bury stuff directly in the ground. So we got rid of the citrus peels, and I'm glad I asked you first. Thanks again!
