If you have a compost bin then you know how really good it is to add compost to your flower beds and vegetable back garden. But doing compost normally requires time and it truly is commonly in short supply. A compost tumbler is a marvelous time saver when creating compost. All the Best Hi There Growingredtomatos,

That is really growing tomatoes organically. Thanks for the comment.

I remember my grandparents going up and down the rows of tomatoes covered in blood. They would literally kill a lot of the bugs by hand. I worked on a private farm when I was little.

I most cases if you want organic pest control you can try using fish emulsion+molasses+orange oil. If this solution is not working, you will need to identify what you have in your garden. You can bring samples of the insect or worm into your local agriculture shop if you don;t know what's eating your tomatoes.

If you could find somewhere perhaps up to 10m away in a shady area or behind some screens you would probably be OK. If it did start to smell just cover the top over with dry cuttings or something to contain it a little bit and soak up excess water, this would normally stop it smelling. If the smell is like ammonia you need to change your mix and get some carbon based compost in to balance out the nitrogen based compost. Regular turning will also help the compost break down more quickly and when it is actually compost it shouldn't smell badly, likewise if you are adding the right sort of compost in the correct proportions and not getting it too wet.
