Can you put mouldy vegetables in the compost?


Question:I had vegetable scraps that had a black/grey fur on it. Can this go in the compost bin?

Answers:
Of course! The mould is the exact same decomposition process as happens inside the bin.


Yes
that's exactly what you want
Yes - it will degrade all the quicker!
Yes!


Don't worry if they are mouldy or rotting slightly. It's perfect for the compost.
Mouldy vegetables will decompose faster and make excellent compost for your flower/vegetable garden.
No!! All compost materials must not mould until after they go into the compost. If they're already mouldy, you must use them for soup.
Yes! As long as food your food is not cooked it can go in the compost bin!

Raw vegetables, egg shells etc..

However tea bags and the dregs from the coffee pot can go in aswell!
Yep cos they are already half way to decomposing
you sure can
Of couse,,,, what do you think its going to do in the compost? Its going to do the same thing and break down. Thats what composts are for...
Yep! We do: only things I dont put in are cooked stuff (bird table), cheese and things that dont degrade
definitely put it in the compost.
