  • Pistachio Shells - Compost or Mulch?

    Hi there

    I eat quite a few Pistachio nuts and was thinking whether it was best to throw the shells into the compost heap, to use as a mulch (yes I can get through quite a few) around a tree or just throw them into the wild scrub area on my land? I have 10 acres in Spain, if that makes any difference.

    Thanks

    Alex

    im jelous id love 10 achers im on a waiting list for an allotment as i have a concrete garden, i know you can put nut shells and nuts in the compost, if there salted was the shells first, they are best crushed to help them rot faster, i put mine in a food chopper to obliterate before putting in my compost, i just use leaves for mulch as i grow in pots and havent got much that requires mulching.

      Thanks, normally buy unsalted pistachios as try (optimum word) to be healthy!

        When my children were young we used to occasionally visit the local pubs beer garden. We always took stuff to keep them occupied such as pens and paper.
        If we got a bag of Pistachios they used to colour the shells as liitle bugs and make familes of them. Kept them occupied for ages.
        Expect the worst in life and you will probably have under estimated!
