Hello, can anyone help with a question. Just got an allotment and the previous person sprayed something similar to Round Up last autumn over the entire plot. The vegetation left (some were potato plants, leftovers of squashes and general weeds) left on the plot is now white and very dry/crumbly.
Question is, would it be safe to compost this? I don't know a great deal about weedkiller, but I know it's supposed to neutralise on contact with earth, but does that mean it's now safe to compost?
I'm thinking about not risking it and just burning the lot, but it seems a shame to waste a head start on a compost heap.
