Sadly, composting is not a fix-it-and-forget-it solution.
The weather will affect your compost piles, you have to check the moisture levels very often, especially in the summer. You also have to turn it as often as you can to not generate those greenhouse gasses. You also have to check the temperature of your piles if you want them to go into the thermophilic stages. You also have to watch for the quality and quantity of your inputs.
Yes, it is time-consuming but it is an investment that is worth the work. The satisfaction of applying a finished compost in the gardens is an incredible feeling.
