Chopping and dropping -- pruned zucchini leaves (healthy), excess kale and chard leaves

I had thought the "chop and drop" compost/mulch method meant cutting the matter into small pieces.  Happy to read that it's often just dropping the leaves etc. intact, no chopping needed.

Since I'm not using the compost bin any more (due to the odour issue with being so close to neighbours), I'm really happy to have this method.  Hoping it won't result in any odours!

It's a mind shift to get used to the appearance, but knowing it's great organic matter feeding the worms and soil etc. I'm happy to get used to the look.
