A removable lid protects against too much rain and prevents drying out. The base should be in direct contact with the soil and slightly sloped to allow excess water to drain away. Optionally, the container can be divided into several compartments to separate different stages of compost maturation.   <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Creative DIY projects for your garden with pallets. \u2705 Easy to replicate. \u23e9 Save money with upcycling.  <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":8214,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_crdt_document":"","yasr_overall_rating":0,"yasr_post_is_review":"","yasr_auto_insert_disabled":"","yasr_review_type":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[52],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-8312","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-garden-balcony","infinite-scroll-item"],"yasr_visitor_votes":{"stars_attributes":{"read_only":false,"span_bottom":false},"number_of_votes":1,"sum_votes":5},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/wohnfrage.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8312","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/wohnfrage.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/wohnfrage.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wohnfrage.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wohnfrage.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=8312"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/wohnfrage.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8312\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":8432,"href":"https:\/\/wohnfrage.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8312\/revisions\/8432"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wohnfrage.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/8214"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/wohnfrage.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=8312"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wohnfrage.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=8312"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wohnfrage.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=8312"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
