Hot, or Active Composting. The quickest way to produce rich garden humus is to create a hot, or active, compost pile. It is called âhotâ because it can reach an internal temperature of 160Â°F (140Â°F is best) and âactiveâ because it destroys, essentially by cooking, weed seeds and disease-causing organisms.
The University of Kiel was founded on 29 September 1665, by Christian Albert, Duke of Holstein-Gottorp. A number of important scholars, including Theodor Mommsen, Felix Jacoby, Hans Geiger and Max Planck, studied or taught there.
Kiel has also been one of the traditional homes of the German Navy's Baltic fleet, and continues to be a major high-tech shipbuilding centre. Located in Kiel is the GEOMAR - Helmholtz Centre for Ocean Research Kiel at the University of Kiel.
