Prednisone intake for extended periods of time is associated with weight gain. The causes of this weight gain include: Increase in fluid accumulation and total plasma volume as a result of changes in the serum concentration of sodium ions.
Decomposition occurs most rapidly during the thermophilic stage of composting (40-60Â°C), which lasts for several weeks or months depending on the size of the system and the composition of the ingredients. This stage also is important for destroying thermosensitive pathogens, fly larvae, and weed seeds.
Temperature plays an important role in the composting process. Decomposition occurs most rapidly between 110Â° to 160Â°F. Within two weeks, a properly made compost pile will reach these temperatures. At this time, you will notice your pile settling which is a good sign that the pile is working properly.
