sun-glow Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 Hello everybody here, I've just got my allotment key and found that it's in a terrible mess. Blackberry canes cover most of the hedges and ground. I can't see the path in the allotment at all. I don't want put the blackberry canes in my compost heap to stink my hand in the future. Where/how can I dispose them or burn it in a time don't cause nuisance to others? Help needed urgently. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snakeheadblu Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 There may be a communal compost heap , If not bag it up for tip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mc55 Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 why don't you just pile them up until they dry and then burn them ? Make sure you dig out the root or they will come back - vigorously ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sun-glow Posted July 17, 2012 Author Share Posted July 17, 2012 Thank you, Snakeheadblu and mc55. My plot is quite far from the commual compost heap. I will pill them up and burn them later because I have no transport for now. I may use the communal compost heap for the cutting from the hedges and trees when I got driving license (hopefully!!)

mc55 Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 Anything woody, like hedges etc, will need to be shredded before it can compost down - could take years - seriously I'd pile it all up and have a huge bonfire - you can always use the potash that's generated for your onion bed just make sure there are no critters in it when you set fire to it.

Thank you very much. I do like the idea of huge bonfire:) and it take some pressure off me for the urge to taking driving test. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amandakm Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 if u can hang on, make a pile of everything that needs burning and have your big bonfire around bonfire night, doesn't bother neighbours then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
