I have two barrels I got from my local Saturn dealer. They had car washing solution in them, are of the 55 gallon size and are opaque white plastic.
I want to use at least one for a compost barrel after a thorough rinsing,. I have the hardware to install a hinged lid and will roll it around every few days to mix the contents.
The one thing I am not clear on is where and how many holes to drill. The advice I have read says to drill holes but I have not seen the deatails. Specifically:
(1) Where? Top and bottom? The sides or both?
(2) What size holes?
(3) How many?
Any feeedback will help me get this up and running this weekend.
