In the past weeks I been recolected paper, cardboard, hair and cotton stuff, for the nitrogen in my compost, how am I doing 😀 ? Should I cut more the paper to make it tinier? what more can I include for the nitrogen stuff? (I'm not an English native so be kind pls T_T)

Size is fine, honestly with regular paper like this I don’t even cut it smaller at all, I just put in whole sheets of paper since it decomposes so fast. However is this your actual compost pile? Or just a bin the paper is in?
I stopped using paper because it ended up all over the yard, and was sometimes coated in sneaky plastic. But I have enough browns with leaves and cardboard now. Just a heads up
Note: paper, cotton are carbon. Hair may not break down at the same rate as everyone else you’re bringing to the party.
It needs water. Also add kitchen scraps
