I bought a garden shredder can I add the output to my wormery?
Will it convert within a finite time to compost?

Anything will compost eventually, even teabag bags. But why not put it
straight on the garden where it will do most good?

When the Dutch closed of the Zuider Zee they found their composters
were eating into the glass shards that got into the recyclers. I have
never heard of any more research on the subject though.

I did hear that garbage put in a swamp, south of New York, was recovered
for research several decades later and even newspapers had survived in
readable format.

No oxygen for the aerobic bacteria to break it down


So heat, damp and time are not everything to a compost bin, are they?
