7 cups of rice bran and rice husk were mixed together with lacto pafi and "tuba" and a litle bit of water. it was first mixed in a temporary container, then placed in the laundry basket with a sack lining.

<<Day One>>
When I opened the container with the mixture of rice bran, rice husk, lacto pafi, "tuba", and water, I found some white particles.

<<Day Two>>
After removing the cloth cover, I found out that the white particles multiplied in number and as I placed my hand just centimeters above the mixture, I felt that it became warm, which signifies
the activation of microorganisms.

<<Day Three>>
As expected, the white particles multiplied AGAIN in number and the mixture became warmer than yesterday.

<<Day Four>>
The mixture became warmer compared to yesterday's observation. The white particles still existed and multiplied in number.

<<Day Five>>
Since the weather was rainy, the mixture's temperature dropped. The white particles were still there. Now I began feeding the compost with calamansi skin. I chopped the calamansi skin into smaller pieces then fed it to the compost.

<<Day Six>>
Good thing the weather's good, so the mixture's temperature increased back. It emitted heat. I fed the compost with banana peelings and calamansi skin. Of course, I chopped the banana peeling and calamansi skin into minute pieces before feeding it to the compost.

<<Day Seven>>
The weather's just fine, so the mixture became warmer and there were very visible clumps of white particles. I fed the compost again with leftover rice, chopped banana peel and calamansi skin and mixed it properly so as to let the air get in with the mixture.
