I've decided to lift my flowering broccoli. However, the stems (as you
are all aware, I'm sure) are quite thick and solid. Will they rot down on
a compost heap readily?

Excuse my questioning, but I've not grown it before.

I chop them up with a small axe to allow them to rot down quicker, and
dispose of the roots.
