Weedol - a rookie question
« on: July 06, 2020, 21:03 »
Having a large patch of very health dandelions and docks that could stare me in the eye and a glass back, I decided to use a glyphosate spray to get rid of them.  Just this once.

The question is can I put the dead stuff into the compost bin?  I know it doesn't stay in the soil but does it stay in the plant?

thanks in advance.

Yes, it will break down very quickly in the compost heap by bacterial and fungal action just as it does in the soil.
