Ask your QuestionCan bracken be shredded and thrown into a pile of compost or is it this unsafe?
Asked by Pete on 22nd Jan 2021Best Answer
"The young green fronds of bracken can be put in to a compost heap but not the stem of the bracken as this will then root and spread"

Answered on 16th Feb 2022 - Member since Jan 2022 - report"Braken rots down very easily and will add more fibre to your compost pile.
Its also very useful for covering delicate emerging plants during the winter to protect from frost damage,
Hope this is of help
Edward"
"Its only unsafe if your comsuming the bracken itself if left to compose it does become good as compost usually taking about 4months to a year dependant on conditions."
