what particular plants?
are you adding all of your fruit/veg kitchen waste? Rinsing and crushing eggshells? If you live near a horse stable, they may have a manure pile that you can fill a bucket from. take a shovel and dig deep for the older stuff, it won't smell, but your plants will love it, mix it with your regular compost pile.
