Step 4Cake time!
No, sorry. I lied.
This is not the kind of cake you will want to eat. This cake is only delicious to worms or the bacteria that are going to make your compost for you.
1) Spread an inch thick layer of dirt covering the bottom of your bucket
2) Spread an inch thick layer of clippings over that.
3) Repeat steps 1-2 until your bucket has only 2 inches left from the top, or you run out of clippings/dirt.
4) Top it all of with a half-inch layer of dirt on top, to lock the moisture and heat inside when it starts to ferment.

Do you add the initial water at this point? If so, how much?
