We picked up a 1/2 yard load of bulk compost at Whittier about a month or more ago. Loved the price, and the consistency of the compost seemed good, but the water that drains from our raised planters still has an amazingly strong sewage smell.. I'm wondering if either they sell different grades of compost (didn't think to ask at the time), or it didn't cook long enough, or if that's just the way it is. Seems awfully foul so far. Wish I could find a retailer that just sold green waste compost around LA, but haven't had any luck locating one so far.
