我的世界每月方块：堆肥桶

Welcome to the world of Minecraft, where even the task of waste management can become an epic adventure! Today, we’re here to talk about the composter, an unassuming block that turns your stinky old food scraps into rich, fertile soil. Get ready to watch your farm thrive like never before…
欢迎回到Minecraft世界。你在哪里能见过废物管理都是值得被记录下来的史诗？今天我们来看看堆肥桶，一个能变废为肥，能把臭不可闻的泔水变成肥沃的肥料的东西。准备迎接农场的繁荣时代吧！

Composters joined the Minecraft block party in the Village & Pillage update in 2019. Originally they required fences to craft, but then in the Buzzy Bees update they were updated to only require slabs. Since then, the only change we’ve made to them is that you can compost more things – mangroves, glow lichen, azalea, moss blocks, shroomlights, nether wart, and all sorts. The world is your slowly decomposing oyster.
堆肥桶最初在Java版1.14（村庄与掠夺，’19）中加入。最初，它们可以使用任意栅栏进行制作。在嗡嗡蜂群更新之后，堆肥桶改为由任意木质台阶合成。我们对此在后来唯一的微调是，你可以堆肥更多的东西——红树、发光地衣、杜鹃花丛、苔藓块、菌光体、下界疣等等。这个世界的所有东西都可以给你用来堆肥！

Getting hold of one is very straightforward. You can craft one out of seven wooden slabs arranged in a U-shape in a crafting grid. If that’s not simple enough for you, you can even borrow one from a farmer in a village, though remember to bring it back when you’re finished with it.
做一个堆肥桶很简单，只需要7个任意木质台阶排成U型。没有？去村民那里借一个吧，记得把借的东西还回去。

To use one, place it on the ground, get some organic material in your hand, and then hit the use key onto it. Most food and plant-based items can be composted, with the notable exception of bamboo (too fibrous), poisonous potatoes (too poisonous), dead bushes (too dead), and meat and fish (too stinky as it rots). Everything else is fair game.
如果要使用堆肥桶，请把它放在地上，拿着有机植物，按鼠标右键即可堆肥。竹子（太纤维化了）、毒马铃薯（太毒了）、枯萎的灌木（太干了）以及肉类（太臭了），这些以外都是十分的美丽和谐的。

As you drop items in, you’ve got a chance to raise the compost level – and different items have different chances. Beetroot seeds, for example, have just a 30% chance, while hay bales have an 85% chance. When the compost level rises to the top then you can hit the use key with an empty hand and you’ll get some bonemeal – the perfect way to accelerate your farming endeavors.
当你把物品堆肥的时候，你有机会使堆肥桶的表面提升1层。如：甜菜种子（30%），干草捆（85%），不同的物品有不同的概率。当堆肥桶满了，用空手右键堆肥桶可以获得骨粉。这可以让你的农场效率更进一步。

In the real world, the composting process begins when tiny microorganisms, like bacteria and fungi, as well as creatures like insects and worms, start to eat the materials you throw onto your compost heap. They chew through it and break it down into smaller and smaller bits over time. This is called the “active” stage of composting, and it can take a few weeks or even months.
在真实世界中，当细菌和真菌和小型昆虫、蠕虫开始食用堆肥的废料时，堆肥就开始了，它们会把肥料分解的越来越小。这是堆肥的“分解”段，只需要耐心等待，这个阶段少则几周，多则几月。

During this time, the compost may get hot and steamy – this is because the process creates heat. You’ll need to keep it moist and well-aerated by turning it over regularly, which helps the microorganisms do their work and speeds up the decomposition process. Eventually, the materials will start to break down into a dark, crumbly substance. This is the “mature” stage, and it’s full of nutrients that your plants will love!
这时候，堆肥可能会变得很湿热，这是因为分解过程中会产生热量，你需要及时翻转堆肥箱以保持它们的潮湿和通风，这有助于更快速地使废料被微生物腐蚀，最后变成深色的易碎物质。这是“成熟”段,它充满了植物最爱的营养！

About 20% of the waste that goes into landfills can actually be composted instead – so composting helps the environment. It also makes your plants happy, your soil healthier, and your garden grow. Give it a try – both at home and in Minecraft, and see the magic happen!
填埋场20%的垃圾都可以用来堆肥，所以堆肥还可以改进环境问题！堆肥使你的花朵更开心，泥土更健康，花园更整洁。在Minecraft里试试，让生命的魔力重现！
