We are taking over an allotment plot soon that has been fallow for a year.
Which weeds can be added to the compost heap and which must be excluded?
TIA
Paul.

If in doubt, get a shredder and put everything through that first. It will
kill & compost all the vegetation. However it is the seeds of weeds which
are more problematic. The best answer to that is to make the compost pile
big to produce lots of heat & cover it with a black plastic sheet for a
year. You need space an patience though.
