No fruits from any bins.

The first bin colonized the surface of the soil some more

I added some peat to the top

I had added some soil to the top of the second bin

After it colonized a bit more I added some peat to the top

The third bin was just cased with peat

After colonizing they look like this.

The first bin is getting some trich on the side. That's why the top looks uncolonized. The bin was actually stuck out in the sun to try to slow down the trich. The third bin is starting to attract fungus gnats.

If I don't get fruits I will bury these bins in the garden with some straw.
The outdoor beds haven't produced anything. I'm not sure whether to expect anything from them this season or not.
