Shredding
Shredding: Worth it?
We tend to end up with a lot of woody waste that's too thick to compost and too thin to use as wood/stakes. We've now got a small mountain of the stuff next to the compost heaps, and it's not getting any smaller. If we shred the stuff (up to 1" in diameter), what can we do with it? We don't need it as a mulch to suppress weeds as we've covered every flower bed with plants now. In fact, it would be difficult to apply it. Can we add it to the compost heaps? Maybe use it on the top of patio pots to discourage slugs? I'm loath to burn it or just throw it away. The waste is mostly Ash saplings, Sycamore saplings, and branches from mature shrubs and fruit trees. Al. |
