Default Covering a compost heap

While we are on the subject I was wondering if it is possible to add
pistachio shells or date stones to the compost? Has anyone tried? Or
does that take too long to decompose?


They take a long time, but they are small enough not to cause a problem.
Date stones tend to germinate, but won't last the first winter.
