Look at this amazing compost cauldron and all these compost materials we've collected.
What do we start with first?
Oh, some sticks.
The sticks and dry materials help give some breathing room to the compost so it doesn't
get too wet.
Next we put in something green.
This is where the bacteria come in because they start to break everything down.
So what next?
How about some cardboard and some newspaper?
Take the paper like this and you do it in strips and dance as you go.
Flick and lift.
Come on, wizards.
Cast.
Cast the paper magic.
Well, garden wizards, I think we've got all our compost ingredients.
So now I guess we've got to wait.
Normally, yes, you would have to wait months, but we don't.
That's right.
We have special garden wizard powers.
Compost Kazam!
Whoa!
It doesn't work!
