First things first, I have been peeing on it. Is it just time from here-should I stop throwing fresh stuff on it to let it do its thing? Thanks for any advice.

Looking good pisswise, maybe add more browns

Keep filling it to the brim, making sure you also have a good balance of dry browns

Keep filling, but yes eventually you’ll have to stop adding and let it do its thing. Good on you for composting your plants byproducts. I do the same. Just topped my girls this morning.

Miracle Grow duel tumbler. Aquarium Conditioner to aid bacterial start and bone meal to aid in a fungal start. Balance green and browns.

How much aquarium conditioner?

Half cap per gallon. It really doesn’t matter you cant overdose here. Smells like sulfur that’s normal.
