I treated the lawn with Ortho Weed B Gone one week ago. How soon will
it be safe to place grass clippings in my composter, or is that a

Two questions:
1. How bad of a weed problem did you have that you needed to put weed
killer on the whole lawn?
2. Why are you bagging your clippings in the first place? (That may be
partly responsible for having such a weed infested lawn that you had to
spread weed killer on it in the first place.)

Asking about composting those clippings is kind of like asking getting a
tune-up on a car with no brakes.

I agree. Get a mulching lawn mower, it will shoot the clippings back into
the lawn and help get rid of the weeds. I wouldn't compost them at all but
if you want to I would wait at least a month before you try it again.
