Compost?? or not??

Nov 08, 2005 1 Replies

I have brocchili (20) cabbage (15) Cauliflower (12) and a few Brus Spts. When removing bottom leaves, should I compost them or toss em'?? and the cabbage root... I know these beasts deplete the soil, but I have also heard that the remains can carry over eggs and other problems. I HAVE HAD VISITS FROM Cabbage worms who are now gone. I live in zone 5-6 St louis area. Thanks Joe Mc



Compost them. Don't worry about cabbage worms. Even if you could eliminate them from your garden, the adults would just fly in from the neighbors anyway.
