RE: 5 Foolproof Ways to Compost Weeds

in #gardening7 years ago

Great stuff Kevin! Really like this article especially because I've got a huge compost pile going now with a lot of old tomato plants in it. Don't want all those seeds coming up next year in the wrong places. Think I need to add some leaves to balance out the C:N ratio as it doesn't seem to be getting hot enough.

Wohoo! Totally agree as far as the tomatoes go. But you can't beat the smell of a lot of tomato vines, right? At least before they start to decay...

I have an entire article on composting leaves on my site that I'll end up putting on Steemit someday, but I'm sure you know what to do with those anyways. They're kind of annoying due to the matting. Once I have a leafier property, I'll be getting an electric chipper shredder and just chopping them into DUST to increase surface area and decomp time.
