Daggings / fleece

Of course wool is compostable! We’ve all seen it advertised everywhere. I’ve just never put 2 & 2 together until just now

After reading this I’m going to cut some bracken as well.

When we had sheep I used to throw the fleeces on the compost heap and they were soon covered with other vegetation and rotted down.

I am tempted to cut bracken but have refrained so far because it is potentially carcinogenic and have not been able to find out if the carcinogenic substance would be absorbed by plants grown in it - most unlikely I would have thought. The compostguy might be amenable to answering any questions about it in his online chat if you are going to use bracken - regarding the best time to cut it etc. Some people eat the young fronds which is definitely risky and cutting it when it is producing spores is likely a problem if you don't wear a good builders type mask (not the ones hospitals dished out for covid).

This suggests hot composting bracken

This suggests not to eat it I think
