I took a large compost bag full of diseased plant material, blighted
potatoes and stems, and onions with white rot and brown neck rot down
the local recycling centre two days ago. I asked the chap there where
it should go, he said "in the Green Waste", I said "but it's diseased",
he said "where else are you going to put green waste?"


More or less the only stuff that goes in our garden waste bin are things
we want to get rid of, like Ragwort, Thistles etc. It's not a problem
provided it all gets shredded and composted properly but I do have my
doubts that happens with any consistency.
