How long does it take for leaves to rot?

Around 3 months. There are certain things you can do to speed up this process. There are certain factors that will naturally increase or decrease the speed also. Such as cold weather making it take longer for them to rot. Hot weather making them rot faster. Worms and dampness combined with warmth making it much faster. Never add sticks or branches to compost as they do not rot and make it impossible to shift your compost once the leaves and grass have decomposed. Obviously wood does rot over time but it takes much much much longer... Info thanks to Joseph M. James

Does redwood rot?

Redwood has a natural resistance to decay due to its high levels of tannins and oils. This makes it highly resistant to rot and decay, which is why redwood is a popular choice for outdoor furniture and decking. However, like all wood, redwood can still decay over time if not properly maintained and protected from prolonged exposure to moisture.


Can you use insect dust to coat your potato seed to prevent seed rot?

Insect dust is not typically used to prevent seed rot on potatoes. A more effective method would be to store potato seeds in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area to reduce the risk of rot. You can also use certified disease-free seed potatoes to minimize the chances of rot.
