figure cu ft in a bag of compost that is in lbs
Hi Everyone,
So happy to have found this forum! I just started my square foot garden and need help trying to figure out how many cu ft a bag of composted manure that weighs 30 lbs is. I can't seem to find an answer when I google it.
Can anyone help me?
Thanks so much

Re: figure cu ft in a bag of compost that is in lbs
Hi, Kulakat, and welcome to the forum! In general, a 40 pound bag of compost is considered to be .75 cu ft. At that rate, a 30 pound bag would be 3/4 of .75 cu ft, or .56 cu ft. Fortunately, many of the bags of compost list both the weight and volume, but those that don't leave us estimating the equivalent.
Never plant without a bucket of compost at your side.

Thank you so much for your reply! It can be confusing when they aren't consistent
Now I can calculate what I need. I'm looking forward to being a square foot gardener!!!
Take care!
