Here is the analysis of the leaf compost, it really should be called yard waste compost as all outdoor yard debris is compost together along with newspaper to make this finished compost. A good finished compost should be sweet smelling, and have a C/N Ration (Carbon & Nitrogen) of about 10-15. This compost is a tremendous source of carbon and will provide an energy source for microbes as well as holding nutrients and water in place in our sandy soil. Nitrogen will provide proteins, amino acids and enzymes.
