thats a tough question

[bluebell]

The heaps were less than half the size when they were started and I needed the space. the roots were (I think) dandylion not sure if it was alive, bind weed definately alive, dock which looked fairly dead.

There appeared to be a lot of fungal activity and Im glad I turned the heap as the edges were generally just dry with bits of bind weed trying to establish. Middle was quite wet in places so hopefully it will go even better now.

So I guess my question is how do I know that it is ok to put on the beds when most is nice and brown and crumbly?
