Big Compost Bin
Big Compost Bin
The Big Compost Bin is a large, outdoor object found in various locations throughout Gielinor, primarily near farming patches. It serves as a convenient tool for players who wish to compost organic materials into fertilizer for their crops or farming activities.
Location
Players can find Big Compost Bins at several locations, including:
- Near the Farming Guild, south of Lletya
- North of the Tree Gnome Stronghold, close to the farming patch
- At the Taverley Dungeon entrance, near the farming patch
- In Hosidius, close to the fruit tree patch
Functionality
The primary purpose of the Big Compost Bin is to convert organic materials, such as food waste and other compostable items, into compost. To use the bin, players simply need to:
- Approach the Big Compost Bin.
- Right-click on the bin to see the options.
- Select “Add” to place items into the bin.
Included items that can be added are:
- Rotten food (e.g., vegetables, fruits)
- Weeds
- Seaweed
Composting Process
Once items are added, they will begin to compost. The process takes approximately 50 minutes of in-game time, which corresponds to 50 minutes in real-time. Players can add an unlimited amount of compostable material to the Big Compost Bin, resulting in a larger volume of compost. Once the process is complete, players can:
- Return to the bin.
- Right-click and select “Collect” to obtain the compost.
Type of Output
The output from the Big Compost Bin is compost, which can be used to fertilize crops. Using compost on a farming patch helps improve crop yield, reducing the risk of diseases and protecting plants from pests. This provides players with a better chance of obtaining higher quality produce.
Advantages of Using the Big Compost Bin
Using the Big Compost Bin has several advantages:
- Higher capacity for compostable materials compared to regular compost bins.
- Increased efficiency in composting, allowing players to produce more compost in a shorter time.
- The convenience of being able to manage multiple farming activities from one location.
Conclusion
The Big Compost Bin is an essential asset for avid farmers in Old School RuneScape. By transforming waste materials into valuable compost, players can enhance their farming productivity and contribute to the ongoing cycle of agricultural success in Gielinor.
