potato stalks and leaves

hello again , im sure this has been cobered a thousand times in here ,

can i compost the stalks and leaves of potato plants after i have dug up my spuds ,

You will probably get the same two answers:

1) If there is any risk that either the roots, stalks or leaves of any of them have suffered from any of the many infections or pests potatoes are prone to then "no".

2) Others say they always compost them and have never had any problems!

3) Of course there is always the saying that if you ask two gardeners the same question you will get 3 different answers!

(Me: I have eelworm on my plot and also some blackleg for the first time this year, so for me it's a "no".)

thanks for that , i agree that if you ask 20 gareners something you will get 20 answers , thanks ,

surely at least 21 answers - allows people to change their minds a bit
