Haha!Hmmm, well past the obvious unpleasant task of tuning a humanure pile... (gross)
, but a humanure pile is totally different, that's almost always with like sawdust and you WANT high thermophilic bacteria (to create heat to sterilize the bad/harmful bacteria)
for cannabis you don't need that, you want a "cooler" compost
whats their argument for turning less?
seems like a humanure pile would want the extra oxygen to match the microbial population increasing
but I don't know much about humanure piles
um.. that totally reads badly...
I think of this funny sand "castle"

But nooo, there's a part on compost in general in the beginning, no humanure involved at all there.
They cite the results of controlled trials with different turning intensities, here's a quick visual:

Oh and actually it turns out that human pathogens (which they do look into alot more) are most effectively decimated at around 45°C - better even than at the usually cited 55-60°C. So going slow and being lazy is the best way to go about
