Can you add tops and vegetables to compost: not all gardeners know the correct answer
Creating a compost pit helps gardeners to have high-quality fertilizer.
There are no special expenses: often we only send waste to the pit.
Therefore, a reasonable question may arise: is it possible to compost vegetables and tops?
What is the correct answer?
As it turns out, you can safely use these components if you follow one important condition: the components must be visually healthy.
If you put any plant debris that is diseased into the pit, the fertilizer will become a source of disease.
Therefore, before sending the tops and some vegetables (tomatoes, for example), carefully assess their condition.
Apples can also be added to the compost. The requirement is the same: they must be healthy.
You can also introduce weeds and even leaves. Weeds should be selected without seeds, and leaves - without signs of disease. Therefore, you should always evaluate the health of the components used, if you do not want to treat all your garden and vegetable crops later.
In such cases, the compost will be composed correctly.
