proper compost shouldn't burn any plant. it is about the best soil you can get. but... be careful of free compost from municipalities, it tends to have pesticides and herbicides in it that you don't want near your plants. it would be better to let that sit for a year before using it. weezie will be along and she can tell you more about it!

Hi Jiffymouse,
Yes I have some second thought about this because I don't know what went into the compost. It could contaminate my garden of weeds or diseases. On the other hand here in Quebec it's forbidden to use pesticide.
By the way, my kids named our Yorkshire Jiffy and she is 11 years old. She is a dog but she is so much like their owners: She is so picky about eating. I never know another dog picky about food, do you.
