Are there any dangers having a compost bin right next to growing vegetables?
Some of my potatoes seem to have blight - the foliage is going black / brown
and dying off. Initially I put this down to the wet weather but I've just
noticed the potatoes affected are near the compost bin. In fact the compost
bin seems to be the epicentre of the problem. Can the bacteria and fungal
spores in the compost bin infect nearby veg? The bin regularly has lots of
grass clippings in it and gets extremely hot and steamy.
